How did you get across the river? We tried this back in the summer but it had been raining heavily the previous day and the river was too deep/fast flowing to cross so we had to abandon our walk :(

If the burn is very full, then you can go up on the west side: there is a trace of a path and you actually get a much better view of the upper section of the falls.
