Loch Ericht
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loch Ericht (Scottish Gaelic, Loch Eireachd) is a freshwater lake (or loch) on the border between Perth and Kinross and the Highlands Council areas of Scotland. The River Ericht flows from the south end of the loch and later enters Loch Rannoch.
It is dammed at its southern end and most of the outflow diverted to the power station on Loch Rannoch. It is also dammed at its northern end just 300m from the Truim River (a Spey tributary) to protect the village of Dalwhinnie, and road and rail links.
