A little more information on Lochearnhead

Callander, in the Stirling region of Scotland, is a famous tourist destination because of its location on the River Teith and its reputation as the "Gateway to the Highlands." Callander, Scotland, has been a popular stop for visitors on the route to the Highlands for over 150 years due to its location on the edge of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. To the east of the town is Scotland's biggest chambered cairn, and to the west are many Iron Age forts, proving that people have been living in this area since at least the Neolithic era (around 4,300 years ago). Tom na Chessaig, also known as Hill of Kessog, is located near the River Teith and is named for Saint Kessog, who was a pupil of Columba of Iona who preached in the area in the sixth century. Many conveniences may be found throughout the town's many stores, restaurants, cafes, and supermarkets. In addition to the neighbouring National Park's many lochs and hills, the town itself offers a wealth of hiking and biking opportunities. Callander is conveniently located between Stirling, Perth, and the train stations serving Glasgow and Edinburgh, making all three accessible for a day trip from Stirling.
