DescriptionBalloch Country Park - geograph.org.uk - 428418.jpg
English: Balloch Country Park Balloch Country Park was recognised as a country park in 1980, and it is the only country park in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, Scotland's first national park. Balloch Country Park features nature trails, guided walks, a walled garden, and views of the Loch. It was originally developed in the early 19th century by John Buchanan, a partner in the Glasgow Ship Bank, and the gardens were significantly improved by the Dennistoun-Browns, who bought the estate in 1851. Buchanan also built Balloch Castle, which now serves as the park's visitors' centre.
