Lochan a Ghurrabain is known as the water lilies loch. It's an artificial loch, created to provide a steady stream of water to power the local mills. The water power is no longer needed, so it's a haven for wildlife with a pretty and fairly easy walk around it. Look out for Heron, Mallard, Goosander and Goldeneye on the loch and other birds in the surrounding woodland.
