Description
Loch Ruthven is a beautiful loch quietly situated in the Highlands, set among woodland and heather-covered hills. The water is fringed with sedge beds. There are several viewing points and a nice bird hide at the end of a short walk. Красношейная поганка and Краснозобая гагара breed here. Sometimes also Чернозобая гагара is observed.

Access
Loch Ruthven is located in the Highland region of Scotland, southeast of Loch Ness. Accessible by car. No public transport. It is an RSPB site with a small car park at the start of the walk. Press P on the map for directions to the car park. Explore on foot only. During the breeding season you can spend 2-3 hours here as the Красношейная поганка are not always easy to find.
