Corrieshalloch Gorge

Walks

A series of walks allow you to discover this hidden gem nestled in the Highland landscape, which can easily be passed unnoticed.

Take time to walk in the footsteps of Lady Fowler along the Fern Walk (20 minutes), or take the shorter main path (10 minutes) to the suspension bridge, immersing yourself in the sights, sounds and smells of this rich environment.

An aerial view of the River Droma heading through the woodland hills towards Loch Broom in the distance. The clouds are heavy overhead.

A gravel path winds its way through woodland. To the left is a fence, beyond which the ground slopes down steeply. To the right are ferns, grasses and trees growing on another slope.

A view of a mossy woodland with silver birches and other thin trees growing out from between moss- and fern-covered rocks.

Both paths can be completed as a circuit and lead to the Victorian suspension bridge, where you can gaze down over the plummeting waterfall. Continue from the bridge along to the cantilevered viewing platform, from where you can peer into this spectacular 60m-deep gorge.

Breathe in the Corrieshalloch air, infused with pine scents and droplets of water, watch the mist rising gently and let the noise of the thundering waterfall and the rushing river rumble through you.
