    Hiking

    This photo spot is almost at the end of the actual Fairy Pools hiking trail!
    When you see the photos taken by professional photographers of this spot, you might think that the falls are several meters high...
    Be careful ⚠️ No! Only about 0.80cm high step... and you have to keep an eye on the course of the river the whole time, otherwise you'll walk past it!

    Hiking

    This is a well-known spot at the eastern end of the Fairy Pools. A picturesque pool and its cascades is backed by the impresive sight of the Black Cuillin Ridge. Sgùrr an Fheadain's famous Waterpipe Gully is undoubtedly the most striking aspect of the view, a great slash in the triangular buttress ahead.
