A short, steep walk alongside the Allt Airdeasaidh to view the impressive Ardessie waterfalls. The path is eroded and wet in places, but there are beautiful views across Loch Broom on a fine day.
Indistinct path which is often wet after rainfall, some steep sections.
None to start.
Layby on A832 short distance west of the falls.
There are no walk reports for this walk. Why not write the first?
From the parking area walk back along the road towards Ardessie/Dundonnell. After crossing the river and viewing the lower waterfall continue for another 10 metres to where a faint path turns right up some rocks.
Follow the path as it turns to the right and keeps nearer to the edge of the Allt Airdeasaidh. Here the stream forms a number of spectacular falls and narrows where the water has scooped out interesting shapes and bowls from the rock.
Follow the faint path up the side of the stream for as far as you want. Ahead Sàil Mhòr looms on the horizon showing what an excellent viewpoint this Corbett is. The views over Loch Broom and the surrounding countryside get better the higher you go. Return to the road by the same outward route.
