Things to do in Callander

Callander is a lovely wee town near Stirling. Just around a 30-minute drive from your accommodation at Loch Lomond Waterfront. A great place for a day trip during your stay. Here are some of our favourite things to do in Callander …

Amazing Walks

Callander and the surrounding area is very beautiful. There are many stunning walks with varying degrees of difficulty nearby. Bracklinn Falls is a popular walk with wonderful views of the falls. It’s a fairly easy route with a good path. To make the walk longer and a bit more challenging, you can join it up with Callander Crags. If you’re into hill walking, you may wish to climb Ben A’an. At 454 metres high, it’s one of Scotland’s smaller hills, but the view from the top is still spectacular.

Galleries, Museums and Shops

There are many independent businesses in Callander, which are lots of fun to explore. Such as Hamilton Toy Museum, a toy museum and collector’s shop with five rooms packed with toys of all types from all eras. It’s a great trip down memory lane! For art lovers, there’s Galleria Luti, a contemporary art gallery with original paintings, jewellery and hand-crafted gifts for sale. And, of course, the quirky Lady Kentmore’s Antiques. A treasure trove of antiques, curios and collectables.

Eating Out

With bistros, cafes, bakeries, pubs and restaurants to choose from, Callander is great for eating out. Either sit in or take out, you can enjoy a delicious lunch, while out and about in the town.

So, after walking, shopping and exploring Callander, it’s just a short drive back to your luxury accommodation at Loch Lomond Waterfront. Where you can put your feet up, or relax in the hot tub. A perfect end to the day!
