From the Wikipedia article
Loch Hope is a fresh-water loch in the Durness parish in Sutherland in the Highland Council Area in northern Scotland. It is oriented north-south, and is about 10 km long, and on average about 1 km wide. The A838 road skirts its northern end at the small settlement of Hope. The loch is an occasional tourist destination for the area around it. Its outflow, the River Hope, becomes tidal immediately below the settlement of Hope. However many tourists pass through the area (mostly without stopping) as the A838 is part of the popular North Coast 500 route.
