What a beautiful, almost magical, hike around the loch and through the woods. So quiet and tranquil when we were there - perhaps the rain helped in that way. The castle ruins in the middle of the loch give it a lonesome feeling, especially on a misty day. But the sun emerged at times, as it does in Scotland, and... More

Nice place but we arrived just before the car park attendant went off duty and paid our £3 for parking only to find that he finished a few minutes later and everyone who arrived after that got to park for free so we felt a bit ripped off.

Lovely loch to walk round,path is well maintained and of good quality. Friendly staff greet you and give you a card which gives you money off other services on the Rothiemurchus estate Small visitor centre with local crafts and loos also on site Red squirrels seen regularly - relaxing special place

Lovely spot. We felt like we were in the of nowhere. We went there early evening & we only saw one or two other people. We wish we had our dog with us he would love it.
