The loch lies between Loch Katrine and Loch Venachar in the heart of the Trossachs and has an average depth of 11 metres .
Loch Achray was for a time the home of James "Beg" Stewart of Baldorran, the son of James Mor Stewart , who fled into exile in Ireland when his father Murdoch Stewart, Duke of Albany was executed for treason by James I of Scotland in 1425. James the Fat would never return to Scotland, and he was unable to inherit the Albany estates, but James "Beag" Stewart was able to secure a royal pardon and return to Scotland. He is the ancestor of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich on Lochearnside, whose family history is recounted by Sir Walter Scott in A Legend of Montrose.
