Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip, with Scottish fiddle music, of Loch Linnhe on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to the West Coast. The name Linnhe is derived from the Gaelic word linne, meaning pool. The sea loch follows the line of the Great Glen Fault, and is the only sea loch along the fault. About 30 miles long, it opens onto the Firth of Lorne at its southwestern end. The part of the loch upstream of Corran is 9 miles long and an average of about 1 mile wide. The southern part of the loch is wider, and its branch southeast of the island of Lismore is known as the Lynn of Lorne. Loch Eil feeds into Loch Linnhe at the latter's northernmost point, while from the east Loch Leven feeds in the loch just downstream of Corran and Loch Creran feeds into the Lynn of Lorne. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
