SCOTTISH<br />

By Richard Harpham<br />

In the second in the series about paddling areas of the Scottish wilderness, humanpowered<br />

adventurer Richard Harpham shares some more of his favourite<br />

locations in Scotland by canoe. This time it’s Scottish lochs under the spotlight.<br />

I have just returned from another paddling trip to Scotland to replenish my need for wilderness<br />

paddling, big vistas and stunning landscapes. It was our bi-annual ‘Best of Scotland’ paddling trip and<br />

this one was equally fantastic with challenging whitewater, new locations and world-class paddling<br />

destinations.<br />

Scotland is famous for its lochs (and whisky), teeming with inland fresh waters and integrated sea<br />

lochs stretching around its rugged coastline. <strong>The</strong>re is plenty to explore and escape from the over<br />

crowded pressure cooker of modern life.
