It is now a reservoir in the Garry-Moriston Hydro-Electric Scheme which became fully operational in 1962. During the construction of the Cluanie Dam at the eastern end of the loch, the level of Loch Cluanie was raised by 29 metres. At the western end of the loch is the Cluanie Inn, originally a resting place for cattle drovers on their way from the West Highlands to the markets or 'trysts' at Falkirk or Crieff.PLACENAME:Loch CluanieOLD COUNTY/PARISH:INVERNESSSOURCE:Highland LibrariesCOLLECTION:Highland Libraries' Postcard CollectionAsset ID:33328KEYWORDS:
