If you like a bit of the weird and wonderful, this superstitious site is for you. The well itself is a spring of water with a tree growing alongside, and a ‘clootie’ is a piece of cloth, a rag from an item of clothing. Together they form an ancient tradition for healing, whereby a cloth or rag is dipped in the well and tied to a nearby tree; the item of clothing may correspond to the body part where the person is suffering. As the clootie disintegrates, the person is relieved of their ailment, or so the story goes. Still used today, there’s an eerie allure about the place. Clothes, personal belongings and heartfelt messages are worn by the trees like leaves; it is quite a spooky spectacle.

I would wholeheartedly recommend that anyone visiting the Highlands take at least a day to visit Loch Ness - there's something very special about it.
There are various places to visit along the banks of Loch Ness which I will include as separate entries into the guidebook:
The Dores Inn
Urquhart Castle
The Loch Ness Centre and Exhibition
Jacobite Cruises
The falls of Foyers
