Visited fairy falls, great place to visit parking is free which is brillent, there's 2 waterfalls in total and there beutifull. Trail is really good a few spots there muddy and quite rocky buy perfectly easy if your able to walk to morrisons you can walk here! Great views and well worth it,
Family of 4 (2 small kids) loved the walk.
It is a beautiful place to visit. Highly recommend it.
Nice beach, public toilets, and restaurants are nearby .
During the walk you will have to climb some small rocky steps at some stage and cross a very short but intricate path ( narrow ) with the waterfall waters to one side and no banisters in the side of a 2 metres fall … that made me giggle because the bannisters/ fences were on the side of the rocky wall. I guess that is to avoid kids climbing and falling over.
You can still hold yourself from them and also from a rope attached to the wall so you can be safe.
All this give you the feeling of adventure.
The place wasn’t empty , there were people walking around, and wifi was excellent .
Oh!! I know, you are never to high and the water is not deep at all but is rocky and sliding. So be careful . Wear proper shoes, and mind the trees roots. They are prominent all over the floor.
One of my little kids is autistic so we were super careful with all that kind of details .
Amazing place , little car park, and then quite easy forest walk to the Falls . There are 2 fall you reaching first and then you need to climbe stairs to the other one . Both stunning , definitely worth visit

Lovely lovely lovely. Easy to park and a very easy walk to the double falls. Well maintained. No bathrooms
Free parking space. Nice easy marked trail. Can be muddy after rain but the falls have more water. Not very long.
These were epic falls. We were here in the winter following heavy rain fall and it was awesome.
The Car Park itself was easily accessible from the road and free, we approached from Inverness. The roads leading aren't too bad, through the villages close by they can be a little narrow.
But the walk from the car park, which also has a few bike racks available, is decently sign posted. The area is beautiful, the sound of birds ringing in the air. There is a donation bin along the walk way, which helps them maintain the area.
The path isn't too bad, although there are a few spots that are affected by tree roots. As you can see it was a lovely day, but I can imagine the roots could be slippy when wet.
Even though the days had been really nice leading up to our visit, with little to no rain fall, the falls we're still a wonderful sight to see.
I shall be returning again, I shall try and get a day that has had a pretty decent rainfall, so I can see the falls in all its glory.
Would highly recommend the walk. Stunning!
