Best Log Cabins in Falls of Glomach

One of Britain’s most spectacular and isolated waterfalls, the Falls of Glomach plunge 370 feet (113 metres) from a steep, narrow cleft in a remote part of the Scottish Highlands. Accessible only by a 12-mile hike through spectacular Highland landscapes of mountains, open valleys and woods, getting here is part of the adventure. Along the way, you may spot such wildlife as golden eagles, red deer and feral goats. The crystal clear waters of the falls are often shrouded in mist, befitting its Gaelic name glòmach, which means “hazy.”

Cabins in Falls of Glomach guide

When to go

Tackling the challenging hike to the Falls of Glomach requires good weather. For this reason, you’d be best planning for a summer visit as that promises the most agreeable weather conditions, as well as long daylight hours. Bear in mind, however, that even at the height of summer, the weather can change quickly in the Highlands and when it turns, even though the trail is fairly easy to follow, visibility can be difficult.

Know before you go

The hike to the Falls of Glomach begins at Morvich Car Park.
Proper gear is a must; be sure to wear sturdy hiking boots and waterproofs and carry an OS map and compass.
There’s no phone reception for most of the way: let someone know your plans before setting out.
