Visit beautiful Benmore Botanic Gardens tucked beneath the mountain of the same name. In a magnificent mountainside setting near Holy Loch on the Cowal Peninsula, Benmore is an enchanting world steeped in history and surrounded by dramatic scenery.
A joy to behold, these 140 acres -- entered via the spectacular Giant Redwood Avenue -- boast a famous collection of flowering trees and shrubs, including more than 300 types of rhododendron. Trails lead to the beautiful Formal Garden, hillside woodlands, and a dramatic 450-foot viewpoint overlooking the mountains and Holy Loch.
It's a short drive back to the ship upon completion of your outing.
Please note: Wear comfortable walking shoes.
