Kinlochaline Castle
Kinlochaline Castle is a well-preserved fifteenth-century tower house at the head of Loch Aline in Morvern on the Highland mainland, recently restored to a good condition following years of neglect. The square tower, built for the Clan MacInnes and later held by the MacLeans, stands above the loch entrance with views toward the Sound of Mull and the island of Mull to the west. Morvern is one of the more remote and least visited peninsulas of the Scottish Highlands, a landscape of considerable scenic beauty with a complex geological history. The area can be accessed from Lochaline, which has a ferry connection to Fishnish on Mull, making Kinlochaline a natural stop on the journey between the Highland mainland and Mull for travellers exploring this quiet corner of the western Highlands.
