For Google Map directions from East Kilbride to the Callander, use
this link. Then for a more detailed map of the final part from Callander to the TTC venue (Trossachs Backpackers Hostel), use
this map. It takes about 1 hour if the roads are jam free. Simpler instructions are as follows:
- Head North on the M80/M9 towards Stirling.
- Leave the M9 at Junction 10 and take the A84 to Callander.
- Continue along Callander Main Street, past the square to the traffic lights at the cross roads.
- Turn left at the traffic lights onto the A81 signposted Aberfoyle and Glasgow.
- Follow the road over the bridge for about a half mile to the mini roundabout.
- Turn right at the mini roundabout onto Invertrossachs Road.
- Follow this narrow road for about 1.7-mile and you will see the entrance to the Trossachs Backpackers' Hostel on your left.
The web site for the hostel is
here so you know what you are looking for. The owners will be pleased to meet you if you are early but please be aware that they give us free reign of the place and do not know who is in what rooms. I will be up at about 4pm with the (ever changing) list of room allocations, so relax until I arrive.
A separate blog post gives an indication of what to bring with you.
Alan
