Emergencies on all lochs in the National Park

  • Dial 999 and ask for the police. Give details of your position and the problem you are experiencing

Loch Lomond - less urgent situations

If you find yourself in a position where, for example, you have run out of fuel; your engine doesn’t start or you have engine trouble; try obtaining assistance by flagging down a passing boat.
 
If you are unable to do this or there are no boats around you, please telephone us on 01389 757295.
 
Staff at the Duncan Mills Memorial Slipway in Balloch will be able to relay the information to the National Park Rangers and arrange for the nearest patrol boat to come to your assistance. The Rangers will have your contact details and will telephone you to find out your exact location.
