Balloch Country Park, Country park at Loch Lomond, Scotland.
The 200-acre park contains semi-natural woodlands, formal gardens, meadows, play areas, and a shoreline along the southern edge of Loch Lomond.
John Buchanan, a partner in the Glasgow Ship Bank, constructed Balloch Castle and developed the surrounding park in the early nineteenth century.
The park holds the annual Loch Lomond Highland Games, featuring traditional Scottish competitions like caber tossing and regional food specialties.
Visitors can access the walled garden between 10 AM and 3 PM daily, while public toilets operate from 9 AM until 2:30 PM.
In 1996, the park hosted Oasis for two nights of performances, drawing 80,000 people to the grounds near Loch Lomond.
