Loch Rusky

Loch Rusky is a small loch near Callander in Perthshire.

The loch lies to the east of the Mentieth Hills, about four miles northeast of the Port of Menteith. The Torrie Forest extends over Lennieston Muir to the east.

The name Rusky derives from the Gaelic Loch an Rusgaidh, meaning "Lake of the Peeling".[1]
