The Scottish lake, Loch Ness, is a large freshwater lake located approximately 37 kilometers (23 miles) southwest of Inverness (the closest city to the capital of the Loch and the Highlands). Its water surface is 16 meters (52 feet) above sea level
The famous Loch is situated among a series of interconnected Scottish waters. At the southern end of the Loch, it is connected to both the River Oich and a section of the Caledonian Canal, which then leads to Loch Oich. At the northern end, there is the Bona Narrows which opens into Loch Dochfour, feeding the River Ness and another section of canal to Inverness, eventually leading to the North Sea via the Moray Firth.
Loch Ness is the second largest lake in Scotland, after Loch Lomond, in terms of surface area, covering an impressive 56 km2! At its longest point, its waters stretch 36 km (about 23 miles), and it has a maximum width of 2.7 km (about 1.7 miles wide)

This compact Scottish city is perfect for exploring on foot: travelers can easily find their way from the charming River Ness to the historic Inverness Castle and St. Andrew’s Cathedral, and beyond to Eden Court events and the lively Victorian Market. It’s also an ideal base for exploring the Highlands, with the mysterious Loch Ness (and famous local resident Nessie), Culloden Battlefield, and the Bronze Age Clava Cairns just a short drive away
