"" Loch Ness (in Scottish: Loch Ness, in Scottish Gaelic, Loch Nis) is an extensive and deep lake of fresh water that is in the Highlands of Scotland, in the United Kingdom. It is culturally highlighted by the myth of the Loch Ness Monster.
It extends approximately 39 km southwest of Inverness. It is the largest body of water in the geological fault known as the Great Glen that runs from Inverness in the north to Fort Augustus in the south. The Caledonia Canal, which links the sea at both ends of the Great Glen, uses Loch Ness as part of its route.
This lake is part of the series of lakes in Scotland that were formed by glaciers during the previous glaciations. Its waters have exceptionally low visibility due to the high peat content from nearby soils
It is the second largest lake in Scotland by surface area with around 56.4 km2, but due to its great depth it is the largest. It contains more fresh water than all the lakes in England and Wales combined.
It also functions as the lowest reservoir in the hydro-storage-pumping plan, the first of its kind in Britain. The turbines were originally used to supply power to a nearby mill, but now electricity is generated and supplied to the national grid.
In its most southwestern part, near Fort Augustus, you can see the only island of the lake. Cherry Island is an example of crannóg (artificial islands that date generally from the Iron Age). "
