Lomond North is a ward within Argyll and Bute in Scotland, occupying part of the northern shores of Loch Lomond and including a mix of steep hill country, wooded glens and shoreline. Much of the area lies within the boundaries of Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, which gives it a strong outdoor and tourist identity with walking, boating and wildlife watching prominent.
Economically the ward leans on tourism, hospitality, small-scale farming and forestry, with a degree of commuting into the central belt around Glasgow. Historic kirks, estate landscapes and Victorian visitor infrastructure sit alongside remote hamlets, producing communities that are both long-established and affected by seasonal visitor pressure and rising interest from newcomers seeking rural lifestyle.
