From this viewing platform, you get a magnificent view over Glenashdale Falls (known as the Eas a' Chrannaig in Gaelic). The double falls are approximately 140 feet (45 m) high and are especially impressive after heavy rainfall.

Really spectacular falls just a short walk from the Forestry car park.
Path can be a bit rough in places but easy in trainers. The viewpoint has the best views of the falls.
