    • Linlithgow Loch forms nicely a border to the mighty palace of Linlitgow.
    It is now a site of Special Scientific Interest due to its large number of wildfowl.
    The loch is bordered by a fine park, ideal for walks and picnics. non motorised watersports are available on the Loch

    Linlithgow Loch is about 20miles west of Edinburgh just of the M90 motorway.
