RAMBLERS / WALKERS 
We are located on the Rob Roy long distance walking route which runs from Drymen to Killiecrankie

CYCLING 
The Lowland Highland Trail, part of National Cycle Network Route 7, passes through the park. It runs between Killin in the northeast and Drymen in the south, via Glen Ogle, Lochearnhead, Strathyre, Callander, Aberfoyle and Gartmore. The route uses forest tracks, traffic-free trails and minor roads and is regarded as one of the highlights of the National Cycle Network.

FISHING
Boat hire is available - Drummond Trout Farm - Boat Hire . 

The Clachan Cottage Hotel welcomes fishermen, fishing groups, and angler's
clubs. Fishing is permitted off the shore of the hotel or alternatively you can hire boats from the Drummond Estate and fish most of the 6.5 miles of the Loch. Boat hire in 2007 is £31 for 8 hours and permits are £8 available from Drummond Estates Boat Hire on 01567830400.
Loch Earn is teeming with brown trout and also hosts some rainbow trout, artic charr, grayling and an occasional salmon. About 10,000 trout are put into Loch Earn each year and the largest rainbow trout caught in 2006 was 10lbs 8oz.
Traditional Scottish flies do well but recommended are the Gosling, Kate McLaren, Bibio, Black Pennel, Black Peacock Spider, Claret Bumble, Clan Chief, Hares Ear and Dunkeld.
