We lived in Helensburgh for 11 years when I was a kid so I know the area well. We spent a week in Arden 18 months ago, and revisited lots of the areas I'd known. The road alongside Loch Long is as twisty and bumpy as I remembered it. That climb up to Glen Douglas is fearsome. Did you use the new road through Glen Fruin? The old one had that fantasic descent down onto the main road, with banked hairpin bends.
