Fairy Bridge of Glen Creran

About

A magical stone bridge in ancient woodland, leading to a hidden waterfall.

Why go

• Feels like it shouldn’t exist
• Feels alive
• Magic of scotland still lingers in the air

Must try

• Cross a wooden bridge with a mini waterfall
• Cross it and bear right, not downhill
• Take the left-hand track, not the lower glen etive one
• Turn onto the salachan footpath
• Skip the main path’s left bend — go straight on

Pro tips

• Wear sturdy shoes — it can get muddy and slippy
• Try and wait till it's rained for the perfect waterfalls
• Visit in soft daylight for that dreamlike glow
• Allow 1.5 hours

Good to know

• The fairy bridge shown is slightly off track from the pine martin trail
