Glenashdale Falls


(Average user rating: unrated unrated)

About Glenashdale Falls

This circular walk is particularly good after a couple of days of heavy rain when the burn is in full spate and cascades over a 140 foot drop. The path leads up one side of the burn and down the other and goes past an iron age fort.

How to get there:

Glenashdale Falls can be started from Ashdale Bridge in Glenashdale Forest which is part of Arran. Whiting Bay is the nearest town or village.

From Whiting Bay, turn right up track on south side of Ashdale bridge, signposted Glenashdale Falls. The entrance to the Forest is about 0.5 miles along the track.
