About

Loch Uladail is a great favourite and one of the most stunning in the world!
There's only one boat available which will accommodate two rods for targeting the salmon and sea trout that frequent the loch.
To reach the water, you need to take a short car trip to the dam at Loch Chilostair and then walk 3 miles on a well-defined footpath. The descent into Loch Ulladale is very steep, so you need to be careful while walking.
