Passing through Arrochar, at the head of the fjord, Loch Long, you will drive through high and steep sided Glens before arriving at The Rest and Be Thankful. For centuries the pass has been affectionately known as The Rest and Be Thankful, or simply 'The Rest'. Check out the the climb from Glen Croe, so long and steep that it was traditionally used for travellers and drovers to rest at the top, and be thankful for having made the highest point.

Continue 5 minutes from Kilchurn Castle to St Conan's Kirk, a very unique and beautiful church perched on the edge of Loch Awe. Described as enchanting, magical, and fascinating, this is a truly wonderful place to stop for a visit. After your time here you will make the short return back to Inverary. Leaving Inverary and The Loch Fyne Oyster Bar, have a very scenic 65 minute journey along the east shore of Loch Fyne and through the heart of the Cowal to Kirn at the entrance to the Holy Loch and onto an open ferry.
