Loch Eilt is a freshwater lake in Scotland and is located about 30 km west of Fort William in a very sparsely populated area. The Road to the Isles scenic road runs along the north bank, and the West Highland railway line runs along the south bank, on which the steam-powered museum train The Jacobite runs. There are several small islands on the lake. The lake has been the location of several films, including Local Hero (1980), and several Harry Potter films.
