ID:QZP40_1103_P020DESCRIPTION:This illustration shows a view of Loch Naver from Creag-a-gharrow on the northern side of the loch. On the opposite side is Ben Klibreck (from the Gaelic Beinn Cleith Bric, meaning 'hill of the speckled cliff') which rises to a height of 3154 feet (961 metres). Immediately below it is what looks like a small fort. The Klibreck Burn flows north into Loch Naver, which stretches eastward from Altnaharra. It is 6 miles (10 km) long and no more than half a mile wide at its broadest. It forms part of Strathnaver, which was heavily populated until the Clearances of the early 19th century.
