Tummel Bridge Information

Tummel Bridge lies on the River Tummel at the western end of Loch Tummel.

A 35 megawatt hydro-electric power station, now the control centre for the extensive Tummel Hydro-Electric Power Scheme, was established here in 1935. Loch Tummel is smaller and less dramatic than Rannoch, yet incredibly beautiful and entirely Highland. There is a road on each side, the northern much the faster to traverse, and more scenic in that it rises higher and gives wider vistas, especially of Schiehallion to the south-west.

You will find a warm welcome awaits you.

The famed Queen's View, which Victoria made famous in 1866, tops a pine-crowned bluff high above the water. But the quieter southern road has many pleasing scenic vistas also. At its eastern end, where it threads the wooded gorge of the lower River Tummel, it becomes quite impressive indeed.
