Loch Etive

I had some time to kill before heading to Oban for the ferry, so I explored some of the back roads next to Loch Etive.

The narrow mouth of the loch results in its most unusual feature, the Falls of Lora. Part of the north bank has been designated a Special Area of Conservation in particular due to old sessile oak woods. Surprisingly, a small colony of around 20 common seals is resident in Loch Etive.
