Family walk
Route: Steall Falls and the Nevis Gorge
Date walked: 10/02/2024
Time taken: 2 hours
Distance: 3.5km
Initially tried to do this walk on my own a couple of days earlier but it was too icy for me. So I turned back. I am a 68 old woman with bad knees lol. Two days later I went back with my daughter and grandkids and the ice had melted so I had a go. Great walk. Parking was fine at this time of year but I suspect it would be full in summer. You can actually walk up to the top car park from the bottom car park by following the path by the river.
The main walk path is quite rocky in places so be careful. I used my sticks which helped a lot. Of course the family skipped and hopped along! The end is lovely with the waterfall and valley. Kids loved the rope bridge. Walking boots essential. Scenery is fantastic. Well worth a visit.
