Welcome to the website for the village of Gartocharn, Loch Lomond in Scotland, created for the benefit of the community in particular, but also for anyone who would like to see what this beautiful part of the world has to offer.
We have tried to make the site easy to navigate around – just use the menu on the left hand side and the links within the pages to explore and discover up-to-date information and the many wonderful pictures taken by local photographers, changed on a regular basis, so there will always be something new and interesting to return to.
As mentioned, this is a community website and ideas/comments/contributions are always welcome – just send them This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or leave in the Dumpling Times box in the Village Shop.

Page of the Month . . . Where is it . . . ?
This page is all about how well you know Gartocharn and the surrounding area. Bob Balmer has spent hours going around the village taking photographs of anything and everything, which are then put on the Where is it . . . ? page specially to test your knowledge of the area. Some of the subjects are more difficult than others, but generally speaking we all know we've seen it, but can't quite recall where! The photographs are changed once we have an e-mail from someone with the correct answer. We know that many of you enjoy the challenge, but please contact us with your answer rather than wait for the next challenge, which could otherwise be a long wait.Since the launch of the website on 11 December 2009 we have had hits!
