More about this scene

This small loch is sandwiched between Loch Katrine and Loch Vennachar, seven miles west of Callendar. This picture shows the Trossachs Hotel situated on the northern shore, and the wooded slopes of Sron Armailte. Dorothy Wordsworth described the visit she made with her poet brother to the loch: 'We came up to that little lake, and saw it before us in its true shape in the cheerful sunshine. The Trossachs, overtopped by Ben Ledi and other high mountains, enclose the lake at the head: and those houses which we had seen before, with their cornfields sloping towards the water, stood very prettily under low woods.'
