Loch Ness


Loch Ness is a very deep loch running south-west to northeast from Fort Augustus to the outskirts of Inverness. It forms part of the Caledonian Canal There have been reported sightings in the loch, especially since the 1930s, of a very large creature, known as the Loch Ness Monster, or Nessie; in spite of many investigations, no explanation has been found.
