March 28, 2026, Gilmour’s Linn Waterfall and Charlie’s Cave

If you cross the river there is an incredible full standing height cave behind Gilmour's Linn waterfall, well worth the adventure of getting there. Worth planning your trip for after a few dry days when the river can be crossed more easily.

A black(expert) mtb trail named The Minefield descends from here to the right of the burn. It’s steep, rocky and rooty with drop offs, jumps and berms.
