Loch Ard camping permit area is a designated lochshore camping spot within Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, operated by the National Park Authority.

Under the park's Camping Management Byelaws, a permit is required to camp here between 1 March and 30 September each year; camping outside this regulated season follows the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.

The permit area offers a natural, unfacilitated stretch of land designed to provide a genuine wild-camping experience within one of the park's Camping Management Zones.

Tents are permitted, and permits can be booked up to four weeks in advance through the National Park's booking system. Non-compliance with the byelaws during the regulated season can result in a fine of up to £500.
