Plans to restrict camping around lochs in the Trossachs approvedpublished at 12:20
New by-laws will "regulate" camping in three zones in the park - West Loch Lomond, Trossachs (West) and Trossachs (North).
The authority said the plans only affected 3.7% of the national park and included investment in new facilities.
But the proposals have been criticised by many outdoor recreation groups.
Campaigners said they were concerned the new by-laws will damage access rights.
The seasonal by-laws, which come into effect next year, will be active from 1 March to 30 September.

Rangers left Cappielow with all three points after beating Morton 2-0 but also nursing a sense of grievance.
The Scottish Championship leaders were infuriated when Andy Halliday was sent off after celebrating the second goal.
Rangers manager Mark Warburton said he was "mystified" by the decision to show a second yellow card for raising his first in triumph, deemed an offensive gesture by the match officials.
Halliday is now suspended for Saturday's game against Falkirk.
