A nice path takes you along this scenic bridge and gorge with wild pools and small waterfalls created by the River Dee. Further down the path you will find some stunning spots to pitch your tent.

The large National Trust car park is about 100m away and has toilets and information boards. The car park is free for National Trust members or £4/day (in 2024) for cars. Overnight parking IS allowed - which is a novelty.

The Linn is a popular spot just down from the large Linn of Dee car park. Often people will be down here for a picnic or a swim. The rock pools are interesting, and the bridge across the river Dee is old and picturesque. A path follows the river downstream where you can then take a walk back to the car park on the quiet road.
