Loch Achonachie and its power station Loch Achonachie sits astride the River Conon and is impounded by a dam and power station. It's seen here from the north, nearing the summit of Torr Achilty. (Note: Torr Achilty was reached by motoring over the dam and parking in a convenient niche on its north side; recent information is that such an approach to the hill is no longer possible and that the dam may no longer be crossed by the public, even on foot.)
