Spring cleaning.

Certain members of our tourist group - the South Loch Ness Tourist Group - kindly gave up some of their time to clear Inverfarigaig Pier of all the vegetation. Over the years the gorse has really taken hold making it difficult to fight your way through without getting lacerated to be able to have a panoramic view of Loch Ness. It is now a lovely place for a sit down and a picnic. We always mention to folk we see there that they can use our nearby wheelie bin for any rubbish. The group has also paid for clearing some of the trees and shrubs lochside especially the picnic areas by parking bays. There is now a much better view of the loch which is good for photo shoots and encourages people to stop and take in the vista. In late March we will team up to help clear the litter thrown out of cars along the loch by walking in shifts from Whitebridge to Dores collecting litter along the way. It is quite surprising how much we collect. Some Spring clean !
