1. The Falls of Falloch is a popular beauty spot with benches for picnics. While requiring only a very short walk to view the falls, this can make a useful stopping point or brief leg-stretcher if travelling on the A82. From the car park follow the path through the trees with glimpses of the River Falloch below. At a junction turn right down some steps to an area where you can explore the edge of the river which can be impressive after wet weather.
2. Keep left following the bend in the river following the path over a small boardwalk bridge to the point where the Falls can be viewed. When in spate the falls are very impressive, even more so if you happen to see a kayaker attempting them. The photos show the falls during a dry spell.
3. After looking at the Falls climb up past a bench to turn left to follow the path back over a wooden bridge and past another bench and then along the straight path back to the car park.
