This category is for article relating to lakes in Scotland, that is to say freshwater lochs, regardless of name.

For all lochs, freshwater and sea lochs, see Category:Lochs of Scotland.

Note:
Only one natural body of water in Scotland is referred to as a lake, Lake of Menteith, because of a 19th century mistranslation of the Scots word laigh (English: low). At least four artificial bodies of water (Smeaton Lake, Pressmennan Lake, Lake Louise (within the grounds of Skibo Castle) and Cally Lake (near Gatehouse of Fleet)) are also referred to as lakes. See also loch.

For reservoirs, see Category:Reservoirs in Scotland.
