Loch Of Clousta

Loch Of Clousta is a Lake at Shetland, ZE2, United Kingdom

The Loch of Clousta is a tranquil stretch of fresh water in the west of the Shetland Mainland, set among the low hills and scattered crofts of the islands. A peaceful spot for trout fishing and quiet walks, it is far from the lights of any town, and under a clear winter sky its still water can mirror the aurora, the Mirrie Dancers of Shetland.
