The Falls of Shin is famous for being one of the best places in Scotland to see Salmon leaping upstream in the summer (May - September). With free admission, parking, motorhome facilities and a fantastic visitor centre and cafe it is a perfect place to start a ride from and take in the falls and surrounding area.

Due to a changing opening times of the facilities throughout the year it is worth checking the website before visiting. visitscotland.com/info/see-do/falls-of-shin-visitor-attraction-p1905721
