  • Inchcailloch is a small island located on Loch Lomond.Fast facts:
    Inchcailloch means “island of the old or cowled woman”
    The highest hill on the Island is called Tom na Nigheanan which means ‘hill of the daughter’.
    In the early 8th century, an Irish missionary, St Kentigerna settled on the island. She died here in 734 and legend has it that a nunnery was established right here.
    The cultural importance of the church and its burial ground are now recognised and is the only Scheduled Ancient Monument in or around the Loch Lomond area.
