Yes it is beautiful - but we have to be honest too. Foyers is such a small place that it can't be that hard that this location is his number one spot. We stayed in the foyers house (across the street were falls of foyers is located) that's why we took a look. Otherwise we would never have stopped! More

A short walk down to the falls, and a short walk back up with reveals of Scotland along the way. This walk is s worth the visit. More beautiful than Yellowstone falls. However the walk entails about a mile hike in the woods on an unpaved trail, downhill with an elevation change of maybe 300 to 500 feet (I am... More

Great to see, but a warning to those not in shape: You must walk down and then back up a million and one muddy stairs. There is a viewing point about halway down where you can take great pictures of the falls, but even that is quite a clip of walking. More

This was a nice hike with several trails for different skill levels and ages. But around midday the parking area can be very full. Consider getting there early if you can. On the way down to the falls, there are several stones engraved with a poem about the falls. Look out for them and enjoy the walk. There is a... More

Not in itself worth a drive, but we were passing through Foyers on a drive around Loch Ness. The walk is very quick, only around 20 mins return to see the upper and lower viewing decks, so it made a nice brief stop on our trip. More
