July 5, 2026, The Birks of Aberfeldy Waterfalls and Robert Burns Statue

A great circular loop to see the birks, falls, and woodland. The statue of burns is currently not there, unclear if it will return.

Great scenery and all rideable on gravel bike or MTB. Some narrow water crossing.

Always worth a viist when there has been a lot of rain. A huge amount of water gushes through the narrow rocks.

The Deil’s Cauldron (Devil’s Kettle) is a dramatic waterfall that roars down a narrow gorge on the River Lednock, boiling and hissing as it plunges into a deep pool. Legend has it that it was the haunt of a water elf who lured victims to their doom. You need to leave you bike at the top and go down the wooden steps. They lead you to the viewpoint. Be careful, the steps are slippery in the wet.

The force of water is awe-inspiring and a bit frightening.

The main falls have some height, and can be seen from a good viewpoint at the hermit's cave. A bridge crosses further up at some smaller falls, and a path leads through the wood to make a nice circular route.
