## Geography

Loch Bà is one of two primary lochs that sit in Rannoch Moor, lying southwest of Loch Beinn a' Mheadhoin. Both lochs are served by the River Affric. A number of smaller lochs surround Loch Affric. At the southwestern end sits Loch Coulavie located at the base An Tudair Beag and a slightly higher elevation. Also at the southwestern end, the River Affric flows into the tiny loch of Loch Na Camaig. At the northeastern side, both the lochs Loch-Pollan Fearne and Garbe-Uisage drain into Loch Affric.

To the north of the loch, lies the Munro peak of Sgurr na Lapaich at 3,773 ft (1,150 m), while to the south lies the Marilyn of Aonach Shasuinn at 2,913 ft (888 m).
