Loch Kathrine

Loch Kathrine
Looking to the Northern shore and Eastwards. Taken from Stronachlachar with the pier seen on the left. I am stood just a few feet away from my previous photo position here.
Loch Katrine is a freshwater loch and scenic attraction in the Trossachs area of the Scottish Highlands. The loch is 13 kilometres long and 1 kilometre wide at the widest point and runs the length of Strath Gartney.

The Island: Factor's Island, Loch Katrine. In the course of his long-running dispute with the Duke of Montrose, the well-known historical figure Rob Roy once imprisoned the Duke's factor (who acted as agent and rent collector) on this island, also known as Eilean Dharag. The stone wall was added to protect the island when the water level in Loch Katrine was raised in connection with its use as a water supply for Glasgow, which it has been since 1859. 'Katrine' derives from the Gaelic 'cateran', meaning a Highland robber.

Enjoy full size.
