Things to do in Loch Ness
Loch Ness is a large, deep, freshwater loch or lake in the Scottish Highlands, located near Inverness. Loch Ness is the most famous loch in Scotland thanks to the mythical and renowned Loch Ness Monster, also affectionately known as Nessie. Many sightings of the mythical creature have been reported and its possible existence continues to draw many visitors to the area.
The loch is surrounded by beautiful Scottish scenery with rolling hills, green fields and forests in abundance. It is also home to the ruins of Urquhart Castle, formally one of Scotland’s largest castles. The castle was blown up in 1692 but continues to be an impressive sight on the banks of Loch Ness.
With picturesque villages surrounding the loch and the city of Inverness close by, the area is bursting with things to do, from ancient castles, whiskey distillery tours to outdoor activities and boat trips.

Reviews Loch Ness
“Der Fahrer (Gary) war sehr witzig gewesen und hatte uns sehr viel erklärt. Der Loch (Ness) selbst ist riesengroß. Und wir hatten supertolles Wetter, um die schottischen Highlands zu erkunden.Ein rundum gelungener Tag. Und eine Tour, die ich bedenkenlos anderen weiterempfehlen kann.”
