Steamship Sir Walter Scott

The classic Loch Katrine Experience

Set sail on the steamship Sir Walter Scott, nobly cruising these waters for over a century. Slow down to travel at a more gentle pace, the beauty of the loch unfolding before you in harmony with the gentle rhythm of the steam engine.

Follow the traditional route as you cruise to Stronachlachar, or enjoy a shorter scenic cruise. Listen to the tales and legends of the loch which are narrated by a member of the ship’s crew as you enjoy the scenery which captured the imagination of Sir Walter Scott, inspiring him to write his poem “The Lady of the Lake”.

On-board amenities include comfortable saloons, toilet facilities, and a kiosk, selling gifts, souvenirs and refreshments, including hot and cold drinks.
