Five rivers

The Kyle of Sutherland Catchment

The Five Rivers: The Kyle of Sutherland is the natural tidal estuary for the Rivers Carron, Oykel, Cassley, Shin, and Evelix – each of them with their many tributaries, burns and fresh water lochs. Together, these five rivers drain 163,647 hectares of land and amount to some 46 miles of tidal zone, 70 miles of principal rivers, 400 miles of tributaries and 61 named lochs and lochans.
