Borgie, a river of Tongue parish, N Sutherland. Issuing from Loch Loyal (369 feet above sea-level), it flows 10¾ miles north-north-eastward, partly along the boundary with Farr; passes early in its course through Lochs Creagach (15/8 x ½ mile) and Slaim (3/8 x ¼); and falls into Torrisdale Bay, at a point about 1 mile W of the month of the Naver. Its waters abound with trout, and are well frequented by grilse and salmon; while those of Lochs Creagach and Slaim contain also large yellow trout, salmo-ferox, char, and large pike.
