The suspension bridge over Corrieshalloch Gorge has been closed after safety concerns. The bridge, which allows views of the Falls of Measach and access to the viewing platform on the north side of the gorge, is owned by the National Trust for Scotland which manages the popular beauty spot, at Braemore junction, south of Ullapool.
The bridge is a fairly new structure, having replaced the historic crossing at the same point. At the same time the Trust built a new car park on the Dundonnell road, a viewing platform which overhangs the gorge, and footpaths including an all-abilities trail. The viewing platform is also closed and there is no alternative access to the gorge from the old car park on the main Ullapool road. Visitors can still walk down to the bridge and gorge but then either have to retrace their steps up the zig zag path to the car park or continue along the path which follows the wooded lip of the gorge before climbing more gently back to the start. Details of the route can be found on Walkhighlands here.
