Loch Morlich

The loch is home to a watersports centre with kayaking, sailing, and windsurfing among the activities available.

In 2009, these beaches received a Seaside Award by the Keep Scotland Beautiful (KSB) campaign, the first time that this had been given to a freshwater loch.

[3] When examined closely the sand of these beaches contains large amounts of broken glass.

However, this glass does not come from careless tourists discarding bottles irresponsibly but was, in fact, left over from World War II when the area around Loch Morlich was used as a commando school.

A memorial to the Kompani Linge can be found outside the Glenmore Forest Park visitor centre.
