About Loch Lochy

Loch Lochy is a long, straight and wide loch in Lochaber, Highland, Scotland. The loch stands alongside the A82 route to Loch Ness and Inverness, so it's an ideal spot to stop and enjoy the landscape and hospitality given by local businesses in the area. 
The loch is over 15 km (9 mi) long with an average width of about 1 km (0.6 miles) while the maximum depth reaches 162 m (530 feet), making it the third deepest lake of Scotland. The River Lochy flows from its south-western end while the Caledonian Canal links its northeastern extent to Loch Oich. The lake is located in an amazing region with mountains, and it is popular for wild brown trout fishing.
