Loch Lomond

Ikumi Yonezawa

This is the biggest lake in the Scotland.

There are many small islands on the lake, and Ben Lomond mountain stands on its east shore.
It was inscribed as a registered lands under the Ramsar Convention in 1976.

This lake is very famous among Scottish people, so a folk song was made from it.
The lyric is outlined below.

Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road,

And I'll be in Scotland afore ye;

But me and my true love will never meet again

On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.
