Callader or Callater, a loch near the southern border of Crathie and Braemar parishes, SW Aberdeenshire, 5¾ miles SSE of Castleton of Braemar. Lying 1627 feet above sea-level, it measures 6½ by 1½ furlongs; contains small delicate salmon, abundance of trout, and large pike; and sends off its superfluence by Callader Burn, running 3¾ miles north-north-westward to Clunie Water. The Queen's 'last expedition' with the Prince Consort (16 Oct. 1861) was up Glen Clunie to Glen Callader, 'which looked lovely, and which Albert admired much.'
