Corrour Railway Station and Restaurant, Rannoch Moor
The most remote railway station in the British Isles. No public road access but a train every few hours and the Caledonian Sleeper stops here. An award winning restaurant was located here but closed in June 2015 after a difference in opinion with the owners of the Corrour Estate. The old station house now provides accommodation and the restaurant has re-opened and caters for all comers.

Loch Rannoch (Scottish Gaelic: Loch Raineach) is a large body of fresh water in Perth and Kinross, Scotland.
The loch is over 9 miles (14 km) long in a west-east direction with an average width of about 1,090 yards (1,000 m). The River Tummel begins at its eastern end. The Tay Forest Park lies along its southern shore. The wild Rannoch Moor extends to the west of the loch and used to be part of the Caledonian Forest that stretched across much of Northern Scotland. This is proven in part by the presence of Scots Pine stumps preserved in the boggy areas of the moor, and pollen records from peat cores.
The loch and surrounding areas have suffered from extensive deforestation and plantation of alien species. These practices have given rise to sections of dense tree plantations alternating with deforested areas.
The loch and surrounding area does, however, offer good sport fishing and walking. The small village of Kinloch Rannoch lies at the eastern end of the loch, and a crannog (an ancient artificial island) with a folly on it can be found near its western end. Loch Rannoch was also used as a fictional racetrack in the videogame TOCA Race Driver 2.
Loch Rannoch (schottisch-gälisch: Loch Raineach) ist ein aufgestauter Süßwassersee in den schottischen Highlands. Er liegt in der Unitary Authoritiy Perth and Kinross etwa 30 km westlich von Pitlochry.
Loch Rannoch hat die typisch langgezogene Form eines in der Eiszeit durch Gletscher entstandenen Sees. Er ist etwa 16 km lang, aber nur etwa 1 km breit. Das Wasservolumen umfasst circa 1 km³. Die größte Tiefe des Sees beträgt 134 m; die durchschnittliche Tiefe liegt bei 51 m. Gemessen an der Größe der Wasseroberfläche von 16 km² ist Loch Rannoch der neuntgrößte See Schottlands.
Loch Rannoch ist Teil des Tummel Hydro-Electric Power Scheme. Der See nimmt im Westen über den Fluss Ericht jenes Wasser auf, das abgeleitet aus Loch Ericht ein in Ufernähe gelegenes Wasserkraftwerk durchflossen hat. Ebenfalls im Westen bei Bridge of Gaur mündet der Fluss Gaur, der Loch Rannoch mit Wasser aus Loch Laidon und Loch Eigheach speist. Im Osten entwässert Loch Rannoch bei der kleinen Siedlung Kinloch Rannoch in den Fluss Tummel, dessen Quelle er ist. Mit dem Auto ist Loch Rannoch über die die B846 leicht zu erreichen.
Im westlichen Teil des Sees befindet sich eine künstliche Insel, ein so genanntes Crannog. Loch Rannoch ist sowohl bei Anglern als auch bei Wanderern beliebt, obwohl die Gegend um den See im Sommer regelmäßig unter einer starken Mückenplage zu leiden hat. Trotz seiner Nutzung für die Elektrizitätsgewinnung konnte Loch Rannoch sein natürliches Aussehen weitgehend bewahren. Dies gilt allerdings nicht für sein Umland, das sich heute weitgehend als Grasland zeigt, nachdem der natürliche Waldbewuchs über die Jahrhunderte abgeholzt wurde.
Old Photographs Kinloch Rannoch Highland Perthshire Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Kinloch Rannoch, Scottish Gaelic, Ceann Loch Raineach, a village in the Perthshire Highlands. It is located at the eastern end of Loch Rannoch, 18 miles West of Pitlochry, on the banks of the River Tummel. Formerly a tiny hamlet, Kinloch Rannoch was enlarged and settled, under the direction of James Small, formerly an Ensign in Lord Loudoun's Regiment, mainly by soldiers discharged from the army, but also by displaced crofters. Small had been appointed by the Commissioners for the Forfeited Estates to run the Rannoch estates, which had been seized from the clan chieftains who had supported the Jacobites following the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Local roads and bridges were improved, enabling soldiers at Rannoch Barracks to move more freely around the district. Small was supported by Dugald Buchanan and his wife who taught the villagers new trades and crafts. Buchanan was a local schoolmaster and Gaelic poet, who is commemorated by a large monument in the centre of the square in Kinloch Rannoch. He worked with James Stuart minister of Killin on translating Bible passages into Scottish Gaelic. Near the village is a hill reputed to resemble the head, shoulders, and torso of a man. It has been given the name of The Sleeping Giant . Local myth says that the giant will wake up only when he hears the sounds of his master's flute. The main economic activities in the area are agriculture, forestry, hydro power and tourism with local tourist activities including fishing, rafting, cycling and hiking. The village and some of its inhabitants were featured in the film Shepherd on the Rock.
Bikepacking Loch Garry and Rannoch Scotland 2019
A fairly short route starting from Blair Atholl House of Bruar on the A9. Traveling anti-clockwise travel along Loch Gary down to Loch Rannoch to return back to the start. There is an easier track to take from Gary to Rannoch, just use the double track south and do not go left at the junction by the descent.
Winter Drive From Kinloch Rannoch To Garry Bridge Highland Perthshire Scotland
Tour Scotland Winter video of a drive on the B846 road from Kinloch Rannoch to Tummel Bridge and onwards on the B8019 road to Garry Bridge on visit to Highland Perthshire. Tummel Bridge crossing the River Tummel actually has two bridges. The original bridge built by General Wade in 1730 has a modern replacement alongside carrying the traffic from Aberfeldy. Notable visitors who have stayed in this area include Mendelssohn and Swinburne. The Garry Bridge carries the B8019 across the River Garry just north of the Linn of Tummel
Autumn Road Trip Drive B846 To Tummel Bridge Highland Perthshire Scotland
Tour Scotland travel video of an Autumn road trip drive on the B846 road to visit Tummel Bridge, Highland Perthshire. Heading heading North the road follows the route, either exactly or alongside, of General Wade's Military Road as it climbs through Glen Goulandie. Just before the summit, an unclassified road turns off to the left, creating a shortcut to Kinloch Rannoch. After the summit here, the road drops once more, quite sharply in places, as we descend to Tummel Bridge with stunning scenery on the way. The approach to the bridge is westwards alongside the River at the head of Loch Tummel, and then past the Power Station that generates electricity from the water of Loch Rannoch and Dunalastair Water further west. This bridge was also built by General Wade, with the village growing up around it. The B846 is one of the longer, and most variable, B-roads in Scotland. It starts in the Perthshire town of Aberfeldy, on the banks of the River Tay, and ends in the midst of the wilderness that is Rannoch Moor.

Autumn Sunnybrae Cottage Pitlochry Highland Perthshire Scotland
Tour Scotland Autumn video of Sunnybrae Cottage in Pitlochry on ancestry visit to Highland Perthshire. Once an inn, it was the scene in 1767 of a tragic accident involving cousins John Stewart of Bonskeid and Donald Stewart of Sheierglass. During a fight, Bonskeid was stabbed by Sheierglass' knife which was being used as cutlery during a meal. It is rumoured that, following the Highland belief that if a murderer could see light under their victims coffin, they would escape punishment, Shierglass hid until the funeral procession passed by, then fled to Holland where he stayed for many years before returning and settling back in Highland Perthshire.
