About Loch Ness

Nestled in the central region of the Scottish Highlands, this freshwater loch is home to Nessie, the mythical Loch Ness monster. Nessie is said to live in Loch Ness, the largest lake in Scotland, which measures 20 miles long and up to 700 feet deep. Only eight miles from Inverness, Loch Ness is a great place for a family vacation with hiking, fishing, golf and castles.
