Shake off the winter blues at Scotland's unique Springtime Festival featuring Spring blossom, guided walks of woods, hills, heritage and architecture, gardens and garden tours, art exhibitions and workshops, craft fairs and speciality shopping, all types of live music, environmental marquee, mini Highland Games, farmer's market, food and drink tastings plus a wee touch of Japanese culture!

Based on the town of Helensburgh but with guided walks throughout the area and events in the surrounding villages from Arrochar to Balloch and from Cardoss to Kilcreggan join us and be surprised and delighted by the huge variety of activities on offer to you at this special time of year in the Lomond and Clyde area.

The Festival kicks off with a weekend of fun and excitement for all ages and continues during the following week with walks of varying lengths and difficulty in the woodland and hills of the area. So climb the 'Cobbler' or Ben Bouie or explore the more gentle Upland Way. Many walks include a visit to one of our stunning Springtime gardens and all finish at a coffee shop - promise!
