Loch Rannoch is a long narrow loch to the east of the Moor of Rannoch. At its western end on the River Gaur is a large power station, part of the Tummel hydroelectric scheme.
Perhaps the most famous Scottish loch is Loch Ness, although there are other wonderful examples such as Loch Tummel, Loch Lomond and Loch Tay. The word glen is derived from the Gaelic gleann, a narrow valley, while strath is derived from the Gaelic strath, a broad valley. Glencoe is the most famous Scottish glen.
