Corrieshalloch Gorge National Nature Reserve Tours

This plunging box canyon, through which the River Droma rushes, is one of the natural wonders of the Scottish Highlands. Follow the pleasant woodland trails, cross the Victorian suspension bridge over the tree-lined gorge, and look down on the torrent of water crashing 45m over the Falls of Measach.

Corrieshalloch Gorge shows the formidable forces of nature at their most impressive. It is a slot gorge, or box-canyon, cut by glacial meltwater between 2.6 million and 11,500 years ago. Through its narrow and steep-sided length flows the water of the River Droma, dropping 100m over the course of its 1.25km journey in a series of waterfalls, the most dramatic of which is the 45m Falls of Measach.

For many, the highlight of a visit is a walk across the bridge and the deep chasm below. Spanning just over 25m from ledge to ledge the bridge sways gently in the wind, providing an exhilarating experience!

It was built in 1874 by Sir John Fowler, one of the designers of the famous Forth Rail Bridge. #trover
