Lochranza Panorama (s/w)

6. April 2013

On fair Lochranza streamed the early day,
Thin wreaths of cottage smoke are upward curl'd
From the lone hamlet, which her inland bay
And circling mountains sever from world.

( The Lord of the Isle - by Sir Walter Scott )

Lochranza (Gaelic: Loch Raonasa) is a village located on the Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland.
The population, somewhat in decline, is around 200 people.

Lochranza is the most northernly sited of Arran's villages and is located in the north-western corner of the island.
The village is set on the shore of Loch Ranza, a small sea loch.
Ferries run from here to Claonaig on the mainland.
The village is flanked to the north east by the landmark hill Torr Meadhonach.

The area around Lochranza castle is a favoured spot to observe red deer, as the village is home to a healthy red deer population and,
on the northern shore, grey seals are found year-round. Otters and golden eagles are also spotted in the area.
