Tour Scotland photograph of the River Shiel, a four kilometre long river in Acharacle, in the Highlands of Scotland. It flows out of the Loch Shiel into the sea at Dorlin. For fishing, the river contains salmon and sea trout, as well as native resident brown trout weighing up to 6 pounds.

Tour Scotland photograph of the bay at Glenuig in remote West Lochaber, Scotland. Glenuig is around 30 miles west of Fort William and 20 miles from Ardnamurchan Point. In the last two hundred years, the population declined through enforced clearances of the glens for sheep and voluntary emigration from the harsher coastal regions to the new colonies, particularly Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada, and America.

Tour Scotland photograph of Loch Arkaig in Locaber in the Highlands of Scotland. Situated to the West of the Great Glen, the loch is approximately 12 miles in length and lies 140 feet above sea level, the maximum depth is some 300 feet. The outflow is through the River Arkaig at the extreme east of the loch, which flows eastwards into Loch Lochy, passing Achnacarry. Two small islands lie at the eastern end of the loch, the larger of which, Island Columbkill, or Eilean Loch Airceig, is the site of a ruined chapel dedicated to St Columba which is the former burial ground of the Camerons of Locheil. A road from the Great Glen follows the north shore of the loch to Strathan where paths lead on to Knoydart, Glenfinnan and Loch Morar. In common with a number of other Scottish lochs, Loch Arkaig was at one time supposed to be the home of a water horse.
