Loch Shin is approximately 27km long and was enlarged and deepened by 9m in the 1950's by building a dam at the Lairg end to power a hydroelectric station.

Mountain biking
Great views from much of the road that runs alongside the loch, Ben Hee, Ben Klibreck and Ben More Assynt are 3 of the mountains hereabouts. The Dalchork bird hide is worth a visit when water levels are high or after a prolonged wet spell. Can see a variety of wildfowl, Hen Harrier and Osprey have also been sighted.
