two years ago i was looking at the area around the west highland way and came across this place and thought i would like to visit it but i could not as it was just a little to much off the path.now two years on i ve got round to seeing it.i found it ok and was a bit tricky getting down there.but when you do this place is superb.this gorge with the sunlight breaking through and hitting the water looked fantastic.my daughter louise was in two minds about coming but she was glad she did.i just had to wade through the water to get some pics of the waterfall and got a little wet.there were a couple of hedgehogs which were lying dead at the bottom and i can only think somehow they have fallen from above.great we place to vist and will visit again.
