Trout Fishing Lochs at Kinlochewe
Kinlochewe is situated at the head of Loch Maree where the Kinlochewe River enters Loch Maree, once the most famous of Scottish sea trout fisheries. For those willing to put in a bit of effort to reach them, the local Kinlochewe Angling Club offers permits to visiting anglers for a number of excellent small hill lochs to the south west of the village, fishing in magnificent surroundings with views of Loch Maree from a thousand feet above.
Lochs in the wider local area include Loch Maree, Loch Clair, Loch Coulin, Loch Garbhaig, Loch Fada, Loch Garbhaig, Lochan a Chroisg, Lochan Sgamhain, Loch an Fhiarlaidh and Loch an Neimhe

The maps on this website, extracts from the “Half Inch” Bartholomew map series of the mid twentieth century, have been reproduced with the permission of Collins Bartholomew. Viewers should note that these maps date back several decades, to the mid twentieth century in fact. While much of the man-made details such as roads and buildings will have changed over the years, the character of the hills, lochs and rivers, and the trout inhabiting them, will have remained very much the same as they have always been, in the more remote regions at any rate! This website shows detailed maps of the major fishing locations. In addition, however, I would recommend that anglers planning a Scottish fishing or walking trip should be sure to equip themselves with a compass, the appropriate local Ordnance Survey map and a working knowledge of how to use them. The most useful of the O.S. maps for the fisherman is the Landranger series, scale 1:50,000. For Kinlochewe, see O.S. map number 19.
