Another delightful sight just down from the viaduct. While it may look like a waterfall, it's actually a weir. This is a great spot to have lunch and get a few photos. I hear there's good fishing around the area on the Wye.

The weir itself is now fenced-off to prevent public access. You can still admire the weir from the footpath, however, and gain access to the river a short step downstream.

The waterfall is easily accessible from the front as well as to its rear. Most routes will lead you to a footpath that comes from the front. In my opinion, however, the best routes come from coming downhill through to the back of the waterfall. So why not leave this Highlight until the end of your hike and take a different path than the rest?
