Uath Lochans
Four small lochs on the edge of Glen Feshie, with pines and mountains mirrored in their still water, one of the Cairngorms’ favourite spots for photographers.
The Uath Lochans lie in the Inshriach Forest near Kincraig, where four small lochs are ringed by Scots pine and birch. A loop trail of about 2.5 km starts from the car park, and one section climbs a small ridge overlooking all the lochs and the distant Glen Feshie mountains, with superb reflections when the water is still. Autumn birches turn golden and winter snow looks spectacular. Entry is free. It is about 20 km from Aviemore, requires a car, and the forest track is gravel. You can extend your trip with a visit to Glen Feshie and Loch Insh.
