Plodda Falls
Plodda Falls is an incredibly beautiful and spectacular waterfall, where water cascades a free fall of over 150ft. Surrounded by a designated nature reserve whilst hidden in the Highlands. It is a stunning sight, set amongst some of the tallest trees in Scotland that date back nearly 200 years, with the first recordings of the Falls being made 700 years ago from the 14th century.
The impressive sight of Plodda Falls is not just the waterfall, but the breathtaking scenery surrounding it, with snow capped mountains and massive Douglas Firs, these are some of the most impressive sights in Scotland. The trees height and quality are so vast, they were used for the main mast for Captain Scotts ship, Discovery. The surrounding nature reserve leads in to Affric, having worldwide status as probably being the most beautiful glen in Scotland, and one of the most stunning places in the world.
To view Plodda Falls, watch the video of the waterfall surrounded by its towering trees, which you can stroll to, along a winding path, through the Douglas Firs, directly from the gate of Plodda Falls Lodge
