Studies have been carried out by professionals that agree there is a clear Flooding within Caol can occur due to four processes; risk of river and coastal flooding in Caol. • extreme sea-levels surging into the Loch, • wind-generated waves breaking over the foreshore, • river flows exceeding the bank level of the River Lochy and inundating the surrounding floodplain and • surface water. Each process may occur in isolation or, during some cases, occur simultaneously to produce extreme flooding. This is likely to get worse as the effects of climate change have an impact on sea levels and increase the rainfall running off the land into the River Lochy.

A tidal or storm surge is a change in sea level that is caused by a storm, predominantly from high winds pushing the sea water towards the coast, causing it to pile up there. The strong winds in the storm generate large waves on top of the surge which can cause damage to sea defences, or spill over the top adding to the flood risk.

  • Great Glen Way Scouting Trek Example Scouting Itinerary with Sheri Goodwin of Transformational Journeys
    Great Glen Way Scouting Trek Example Scouting Itinerary With Sheri Goodwin of Transformational Journeys Photo Credit: walkhighlands.co.uk The stunning landscape surrounding the Great Glen Way could be described as very unique; featuring a 'ruler straight' deep scar in the landscape stretching coast to coast from west to east, effectively splitting the Highlands into a geological north/south divide. Over millions of years, this natural thoroughfare has produced some wonderful landscapes, with deep filled lochs (lakes) and rivers, surrounded by mountains and age old pine forests. More recently (the 1800's), modern engineering was such that a series of canals were constructed to connect Scotland's east and west coasts, allowing boats to travel through the landscape, rather than attempt the treacherous sail around the north coast. Loch Ness, Loch Lochy and Loch Oich were all utilized, with the canals effectively connecting each body of water to produce the Great Caledonian Canal as it is known today. The 75-mile Great Glen Way provides a wonderfully scenic route as it follows the general course of this famous waterway. The new 'high route' offers fantastic views of the Highlands and lochs. Be sure to keep a watchful eye out for the Loch Ness Monster! - Ross Mackey, Walk Across Scotland !1 Typical lodging View from lodging Typical lodging Sign posts in blue Trip Itinerary DAY 1: ARRIVE IN FORT WILLIAM Arrive in Fort William via the West Highland Way Trek or by train from Glasgow or Edinburgh; get settled into the B&B.
