Visit Invermoriston bridge and falls. A short drive from Squirrels Leap, leads you to Invermoriston where Thomas Telford built an impressive bridge spanning the river in the 19th century. Great for a photo and then its well worth taking a gentle stroll in the nearby woods along the river.

Like waterfalls, than the Falls of Foyers is one of a host of spectacular waterfalls which are located nearby. Well worth the walk down to the bottom of the falls! And an added bonus is the local tearooms situated in Foyers. Highly recommended popping into Camerons tearooms for a drink and bite to eat

The Falls of Dhivach are a stroll away from Squirrels Leap, and at a 100 feet drop into Dhivach Burn they are really impressive. Its a short fairly easy stroll through at atmospheric oakwood. At the top of the Falls you will see Dhivach Lodge. A house with much history.

We can't recommend this place enough, its just stunning. Dramatic scenery, lovely walks along rivers and waterfalls (both easy and challenging depending on what you want to do); and all just a short drive away from Squirrels Leap!
