Loch Lomond (Scottish Gaelic Loch Laomainn) is located in both the western lowlands of Central Scotland and the southern Highlands. It is located in the council areas of Stirling, Argyll and Bute, and West Dunbartonshire, and its southern shores lie approximately 14 miles (23 km) north of Glasgow. This freshwater loch is approximately 48 kilometres long, and up to 8 kilometres wide, with an average depth of about 37 metres, and a maximum depth of about 190 metres. It has a surface area of approximately 71 square kilometres (27 sq. miles), and a volume of about 2.6 km³. Its surface area is the largest of the lochs, and is second biggest after Loch Ness in terms of water volume in Great Britain.
