Rogie Falls are situated in Forestry land just off the A835 road 2 miles west of Contin.  There's a great walk starting from a convenient car park (with toilets!) going down the river gorge towards Contin, there and back takes around 2 hours, with breaks to appreciate the scenery!  Take your walking boots though, as some of the paths can be quite muddy.

There is a suspension bridge just below the falls which gives a great view of them, but if you're taking your dog he or she may object to crossing this bridge.  However once you are safely across look for the fish ladder which allows salmon back to their spawning grounds when the river level is low.  Click for Forestry website.  To see a map of the area, click for Aardvark Map

Glenrtool River is in Galloway Forest Park, a large area of forestry with many waymarked trails and bike tracks, the Southern Upland Way passes through here too.  Glentrool is also the name of the nearby village and has a visitor centre with cafe that serves really nice cakes!  If you're taking any of the longer walks make sure you're wearing good waterproof boots, when we visited in September the walk near the river was really very soggy!  Follow this link for more information on walks in Glentrool.

Not a river in it's own right, but this little tributary flows into the main river a little below the Rogie Falls.  If you take the wall described above, you will reach the second car park on forestry tracks.  if you then look for the red walk markers (a circular walk) and follow them until the walk curves round to go back, at this point you can continue on - look out for waywarkers with a deer's head carved on them, but the path is quite obvious.  Following this path brings to to this tributary, then a short climb takes you back out to the main track, there's a handy bench near the top where you can admire the view of Loch Achilty, before returning to the falls.

Inchtree is situated a few miles south of Fort William off the A82.  There's a handy car park where a couple of walks start.  This waterfall is seen a short way into the walk, along with other great views along the way.  Although a nice circular walk, which is not too long, this walk is pretty steep although there are a couple of handy benches on the way up.

The Dulnain river flows under the packhorse bridge, the oldest stone bridge in the Highlands, in the picturesque village of Carrbridge. For more photos of this bridge and information on Carrbridge check out The Golden Spurtle

The Am Steall Waterfall near Fort William.  Look carefully - you may recognise this place as it appears in a famous magical film.

The River Lossie, pictured here in July 2007.  Crowds have gathered on the river banks to watch the annual charity raft race.  The sky threatens rain, but fortunately the day stays dry as locals and visitors alike enjoy the day out.

Perhaps not so dramatic, but nevertheless pretty, this small waterfall is situated on the coast north of Portpatrick in Wigtownshire.  There is a stunning coastal walk from the pretty village of Portpatrick to the Killantringan lighthouse.  It is somewhat challenging in places but well worth the effort.  You will take in secluded little bays and clifftop paths as well as this super little waterfall.
