SS Sir Walter Scott

Welcome to Loch Katrine

The perfect place to enjoy the timeless beauty of The Trossachs. Magnificent landscapes shaped by nature, and immortalised in poetry by Sir Walter Scott.

Take in the view and enjoy the special experience of a cruise on board the famous Sir Walter Scott, sailing these waters since 1900.

**The classic Loch Katrine Experience
The opportunity to sail on the historic steamship Sir Walter Scott, nobly cruising these waters for over a century, is an experience to treasure. As you depart from Trossachs Pier or Stronachlachar, you discover that you are slowing 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.

As you travel, the tales and legends of the loch will be narrated by a member of the ship’s crew, and you will be struck by the beauty of the landscape, the very scenery which captured the imagination of Sir Walter Scott, inspiring him to write his poem “The Lady of the Lake”.

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

**Lady of the Lake
Take your seat in the heated saloon of Lady of the Lake, and take in the stunning views of Loch Katrine. Relax with a drink or a snack from the kiosk, listen to the legends of the loch as you travel, and enjoy the majestic scenery which inspired Sir Walter Scott to write his famous poem.

**Katrine Cafe
Relax - and take in the stunning view from Katrine Cafe, where the finest ingredients, the freshest local produce, and a warm welcome are always on the menu.

**Katrinewheelz
It’s easy to hire a cycle for an hour or longer - or take your bike on board ‘Sir Walter Scott’ or ‘Lady of the Lake’ for the morning sail up to Stronachlachar, then cycle back on the road along the scenic shores of Loch Katrine. With bikes for adults and kids it’s the perfect family day out - or you can even hire a tandem or electric!

**Katrine Gifts
Browse through Katrine Gifts at the edge of the loch, to make your selection from a wide range of Scottish crafts, including books on The Trossachs, and on the life of Sir Walter Scott.
