The mouth of the River Ness at South Kessock. The Kessock Bridge, carrying the A9 between Inverness and the Black Isle, can be seen in the distance. The River Ness (Scottish Gaelic: Abhainn Nis) is a relatively short river about 12 miles long which flows from the northern end of Loch Ness, through Loch Dochfour, to Inverness, where it discharges into the Beauly Firth. The river is the origin of the name of the city of Inverness which is from the Scottish Gaelic: Inbhir Nis, meaning "Mouth of the Ness".
