Great place to visit on a dry day. Limited parking, short walk through the woods lead to a crooked stone stairway that twists down toward the river and embankment. Great spot for a picnic with friends or romantic.

Visited here on a sunny day but after a week of rain. It was a magical experience but also very scary in getting down to the water. There were no ropes to hold onto as mentioned in other reviews and the steps were obviously very slippery given how much debris and water flowing down them. We took the climb very slowly and even sat on our bums to get down on the bigger drops. The water was very high and fast flowing at the bottom (which we fully expected it to be) so couldn’t get any further round the gorge than what we saw at the bottom of the steps. Still glad we went but when you go just take it slow and double check your footings!

Trying to actually find this was a hurdle, don’t take the path across the farmers fields, walk along the main road, over the bridge then over the stile. About 1000 yards you will see a set of stones with a gap. You need to climb down them, they are steep and can get slippy till you reach the bottom. Amazing experience to see red water, it can get busy so go early. Wear a jacket as it will be cold and take a towel for your feet.

We were so looking forward to visiting this site based on several reviews and pictures. Unfortunately, reality crushed our anticipation. First of all, there is virtually no parking other than one tiny muddy lot and wherever you can sort of legally pull off on the (again) muddy shoulder nearby. I get that this is Scotland, and you need to be prepared for all manner of weather. However, if you go to this site and want to actually hike into it, make sure and bring hiking boots and a second pair of pants and jacket that you can change out of, at a minimum. It's just muddy trails even to walk in. Second, there is a great amount of trash strewn about. It looks like the worst of tourism run amuck and no care given to the site whatsoever. More on that shortly. Really sad. Third, hiking down into this site is legit dangerous. Not only is it wet and slippery, but at least portions of the stairs have also collapsed, making this a treacherous climb in and out. On the (wise) advise of my wife, I decided to abandon my hike partially in and instead relegated my views and took pictures from the trails above. This is a beautiful spot but sorely in need of management and caretaking to prevent conditions from going further downhill.

What an amazing experience. Went in the morning and it wasn't too busy. The step down are a bit tricky and a bit slippy but we'll worth the climb down. I walked up the river in my bare feet and shorts. There are a few deep pools so be careful and try to stick to the edge. I would recommend a change of footwear and a towel. Alot of different nationalities and everyone was offering assistance to each other. The sun was shining and the colours were breathtaking. Highly recommend.
