The Bone Caves segment runs from 0.50 until 8.39.

It was a wonderful walk, found thanks to this website and then further recommended to us by a local in Ullapool after we mentioned we were considering visiting the caves.

A great video and a great place to visit. The waterfall is called the Wailing Widow Fall. You can climb up the gully on the right bank beside the fall from the bottom to the top. Fairly easy access from the road downstream of the fall which avoids the boggy part and gives a great view also.
Cheers. All the best. :D

Ps There are no wolves roaming wild in Scotland. :D

Ah, I searched high and low after finding that waterfall to work out its name so I could include the correct information in the written description of the video, thank you so much for letting me know the correct name, I shall edit the information on Youtube now too

I genuinely thought wolves had been reintroduced in the Cairngorms - but you're right, it's a topic that's being wildly debated following the success of wolf reintroduction in Yellowstone, but hasn't actually happened yet - Oops! :roll:
