Boat Fishing on Loch Pityoulish
 

Stunning Loch Pityoulish has outstanding natural scenery and is situated in the shadow of the magnificent Cairngorm Mountains. This large, deep loch is located on the north boundary of the Estate and is over 100 acres in size.

Loch Pityoulish supports a good population of both Brown Trout and Pike. Over the years, Pike of around 20lb have been hooked and landed on the loch.

Fishing is by boat only, and only one vessel is allowed on the loch at any one time, therefore early booking is essential, T: +44 (0) 1479 810703.
