Loch na Beinne Mòire is a mountain lochan (small loch) in Inverness-shire, Scotland, roughly 1.75km southeast of the village of Tomich.
The lochan is named after the hill above its south shore, Beinn Mhòr, which translates from Scottish Gaelic as "Big Mountain" i.e. "Loch of the Big Mountain".[1]
Until recently, a ruined boathouse sat on the loch's south shore. However, the Guisachan Estate has since been replaced it with a "bothy-style" holiday cottage.[2]
The loch sits between a peatbog on its north and eastern shores, and a bed of Devensian drift on its south and west. It is a source of the River Glass.[3]
