Loch Eil is a bay ( Sea Loch ) in Scotland . It is connected to Loch Linnhe and the Scottish Sea through the narrow point The Narrows .

On the north bank runs the scenic Road to the Isles (A830) and the West Highland Line , the railway line between Glasgow and Mallaig , on which the steam-powered museum train The Jacobite runs in summer . There are two railway stations along the bay, Loch Eil Outward Bound and the Locheilside on- demand stop . The A861 runs along the south bank and joins the A830 at the west end of Loch Eil. The bay is located in a very sparsely populated area, the villages of Kinlocheil , Fassfern , Duisky and Blaich on their banks each consist of only a few houses. Economically, the hole is used for gentle tourism and the breeding of mussels . Outward Bound operates a center at Loch Eil.
