Viewed from the outside, the building is in need of renovation 😬.
I was very relieved that we were accommodated in the relatively new lodges (part of them) across the street 😉.
The food at the inn is very tasty! 👍

The Beinn Chabhair loop offers a difficult hiking experience, covering 10.3 miles (16.6 km) with a substantial elevation gain of 2987 feet (910 metres). You can expect to spend around 6 hours and 16 minutes on this challenging route. The trail starts with a steep, eroded path through woodland, following the impressive Beinglas Falls. As you ascend, the terrain transitions from grassy slopes to craggy sections and rocky humps, especially on the summit ridge. Be prepared for boggy and muddy areas, particularly in the moorland after the waterfalls, which contribute to the trail's demanding nature. From the summit, you will enjoy panoramic views across Loch Lomond, Loch Long, and the surrounding mountain groups.
This strenuous hike requires very good fitness, sure-footedness, and sturdy shoes. Waterproof footwear is highly recommended due to the boggy conditions you will encounter. Navigation can be tricky in some pathless sections and around rocky outcrops, so bring a map and compass or a reliable GPS device. The trail begins near The Drovers Inn, a historic Scottish pub, which makes for a convenient starting point and a unique place to visit before or after your hike. Always check weather conditions before you go, as the mountain environment can change quickly.
