Description

Added by Bertrand Lanneau

Incredible gorges lost in Scotland.

It was hard to find it be we made it! Coordinates: 56°02'01.6"N 4°24'51.4"W

Between Croftamie and Craighat, there is an intersection (from Croftamie to Craighat it will be on you left). Park your car here and follow the main road by foot. You will see a small path along the road. Follow it until you arrive to a small bridge (you will hear a waterfall or some water running). Just after the bridge, climb it on the left side of the road and start to explore! It will take you about 15minutes to reach the first steps down to the gorges (with a rope to help you go down). After that just explore in the water or outside the water.

You can reach another point by walking a bit more.

We didn't went on the right side of the bridge. Maybe there is a lot more to see...!

Enjoy!

Backpacking Scotland's West Highland Way

Let me just start by saying that this is probably the raddest hike I have ever done. Although the ideal way is to start from Glasgow and hike all the way up to Ft. William, the scenery just gets better and better as you get closer to the Ft William area, so if you just have a few days, you can do it backward and go until you run out of time. This is a very popular hike during the dry season. D...

Catch a Sunset at the The Necropolis

The city of Glasgow has a lot to offer and this is a gem I am happy we had the opportunity to check out while we were here. It may seem odd to suggest a graveyard, but it’s a beautiful site. The graves are intricate and the views are endless. Some history: The burial ground was intended to be interdenominational The first burial was in 1832: Joseph Levi, a jewellerThere have been 50,000 b...

In order to reach the Falls of Falloch there is a small shaded parking lot directly off A82. From here there is a well maintained path leading from the parking area and following the Falloch River. After a short distance you will reach a junction in the path and you will stay right down some steps towards the river bed.
