Ben Lomond, Mountain summit and scenic viewpoint in Otago region, New Zealand.
Ben Lomond reaches an elevation of 1,748 meters, offering views of Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown, and the Remarkables mountain range from its summit location.
Scottish settler William Gilbert Rees named this mountain after Ben Lomond in Scotland, marking the early European influence in New Zealand's South Island.
The mountain stands within an area of traditional significance to local Māori tribes, who maintain ancestral connections to these elevated landscapes.
