Loch of the Lowes

Loch of the Lowes is a wonderfully-picturesque stretch of water surrounded by a ring of rolling hills. It is separated by a small stretch of land from its larger and more famous neighbour, St Mary’s Loch. You get a lovely view over the loch from this position and there is also a cafe nearby.

The place is beyond awesome.

On the east shore path there’s lots of places to rest and take in the views. Benches and grassy areas by the shore line. The first around 1km in and the next around 3.5km in. The walk takes you through fields with sheep in close proximity. Don’t forget your dog lead if you’re bringing your furry friend. Once past the first sheep field it’s safe to let dogs run off lead for the next 2k.
