The Dipping Platform is a docking station at the far end of the loch used for school children to dip their nets during freshwater studies. It broaches four different aquatic habitats: bottle sedge marsh, water lilies, broad-leaved pondweed, and beneath eared willow. It is excellent habitat for damselflies and dragonflies, of which the Highland Darter is a speciality. It is also rich in common toads, frogs and brown trout.
