Through the panoramic windows Loch Lomond unfurls — a burnished ribbon of water with Ben Lomond rising to the right, its shoulders still cool with morning mist. The driver-guide's voice threads history into the landscape: military roads, clan feuds, and steamship links that once stitched these lochs to the Atlantic.
