Steall Waterfall

Wow what a sight, you can drive up to a car park it is a long winding lane with plenty of passing points. It is still quite a walk from the car park but this in itself is very enjoyable. I would suggest preparing for wet feet and there is a rope bridge for those who are feeling risky. The views are stunning all around.

Absolutely beautiful waterfall! We managed to get a parking spot at the end of the one lane road . However it was a very wet rainy day. There is parking near the smaller falls but it still is a mile hike to the beginning to the trail. The trail itself is moderate. I don’t hike regularly but found it to be relatively easy. With the rain the stones were slick in spots. My spouse and I managed the rope bridge but did ford the river on the way back. The falls were beautiful and moving with all the rain. There was hardly anyone there while we were at the falls but started to show up as we hiked back.

Fantastic scenery. Lovely walk, I wouldn’t say it was an easy walk but certainly moderate walk for anyone that doesn’t hike regularly. Well worth a visit, free car parking but not lots of spaces, if you need to park further away this does increase the walking time. Amazing place if you love the outdoors.

Went on this hike recently with my dad and really enjoyed it. The trail itself isn’t overly difficult, but there’s a lot of uneven ground, rocks and tree roots, which can get very slippery after rain, so take your time. The scenery is beautiful and the waterfall at the end is well worth it. There’s a suspension-style bridge to cross near the base of the falls - you walk along a single wire with two cables above for balance. Be aware though: when heading towards the falls, the cable on the right-hand side sits further out, so you need to reach across at about a 45° angle, which can be tough if you’re shorter. I struggled to keep hold of it and it really worked my arms, so just something to keep in mind. Best to only have one or two people on at a time as it does swing a little. The car park is free but very small (around 30 cars). If you miss a space, you can park further away but it will mean a bit of a walk back to the trailhead. The road in is quite narrow and winding. There are no toilets at the start, so plan ahead. The midges were absolutely relentless - insect repellent (or even a net) makes a huge difference. Overall, it was a great hike with stunning views. Just be prepared with good shoes, water, snacks, and extra care if it’s been raining. Would happily do it again!

Don't miss that beautiful trekking! There's 2 different routes - one is longer and a bit more challenging, and the other one is the easiest following the road. If you choose the first one, following the river, you'll enjoy a path almost without people and you'll climb a high hill in front of the waterfall, so the view it's amazing, and after that you'll go down to the river and waterfall, to the main path (note that with/after rain this path will be very muddy, bring the right shoes). The other path will be full of people (tourists with kids, dogs, etc), is shorter but not that nice. On your way back you can have a nice and refreshing bath in that beautiful and clean river 💕

Absolutely beautiful waterfall. Pay and park car park is too far to walk . But there is limited parking far closer but very difficult to get a space here before 4 pm. The walk to viewppint very careful because one side is a big cliff especially with children . To reach really close waterfall you need to cross the creek there are full of slippery big stones can be very risky but possible to walk across the small river . Once you reach very close to waterfall it's absolutely brilliant. Highly recommended. Take water and food with you Need more attention driving to the nearest car park Keep enough fuel in car. Well worth visiting this beautiful waterfall.

This was a fantastic hike for our group of 3! We are all in shape and enjoy walking and hiking and it was easy for us, but for someone who is not a hiker, it could be a little more moderate. There are some up and downs with rocks, but we were never on our hands and knees. We got lucky and someone was leaving the smaller lot that was closer to the falls, which allowed us to swap and get in. It is def a smaller lot and was full, but it’s worth driving up to see and then if it’s full, just drive back To the larger lot. I know the larger lot is a farther hike, but not familiar with it since we didn’t do it. From the small lot, it took us about 1 and a half hours and my Apple watches clocked 2.77 miles to right under the waterfall. The rope bridge is very very cool!! It’s right at the end before the falls! We loved it and it added some cool variety to the hike, but it’s def not for anyone. If you are afraid of heights or don’t have good balance, it’s scary. it is it’s not super rainy/ wet, you can probably cross over the rocks on parts of the river that are shallow instead of doing the rope bridge! On our way in we got to see some highland cows grazing! It’s on your left if you are driving into the falls.. a ways from the car parking lots, a small pull off if you want to stop and see them! Super cool hike! Highly recommend- views were incredible and cool to be in the valley!

Amazing hike! Takes around 40 minutes to get to the bridge from the parking lot at the end of the road, and after that a small hike to the waterfall. There are a few stages of the hike: gravel path through the forest, rocky path/climb, field walk, bridge and muddy grass walk until you arrive at the waterfall. It is not a hard walk, but sometimes a bit tricky. One of my favourite walks yet!!
