More information

Nestled in the breathtaking Scottish Highlands, Loch Ness stands as the second-largest lake—an enchanting natural gem which has been the setting of countless mysteries and legends. 

The most famous monster on the planet

Loch Ness became world-famous for the monster affectionately known as Nessie, whose origins can be found in Scottish Folklore. The legend of the Loch Ness Monster came to worldwide famein 1933, when a photograph of the monster was published in a newspaper. It is now known that this image was a hoax, and 'Nessie' was in fact a plastic snake mounted on a toy submarine.
