Glen Urquhart, or Glenurquhart, is a glen running west from the village of Drumnadrochit in the Highland council area of Scotland, between Loch Ness at Urquhart Bay in the east and Corrimony to the west. The River Enrick flows through the glen and through Loch Meiklie, and the villages of Balnain and Balbeg lie about five miles up the glen. The glen was historically part of the lands of the Grants of Glenmoriston, with Fraser territory to the north.
