Aquaduct which has supplied Glasgow with water from Loch Katrine for almost 200 years.

A good place to stop halfway between Drymen and Aberfoyle. The viaduct is very impressive. Real sense of solitude here.

The growth of Glasgow and the subsequent need for unpolluted water for both human and industrial consumption, resulted in the decision to build an aqueduct to provide water to the city. Loch Katrine was chosen to be the source of the supply. The system (34 miles long) was inaugurated by Queen Victoria on the 14 October 1859. By 1883 an additional supply from Loch Katrine was needed due to the increased consumption of water by the city. An additional aqueduct was constructed from 1885. The new system, measuring 23.5 miles in length, was officially opened on 21st June 1901.
