What visitors say
You can travel to up for the cave and down for the loch. Down mean crossing the road. If you like the loch view with ducks you can cross the river and follow the path with the duck 🦆 mark. Will take around 30min to reach there. Enough parking spaces 🅿️

This was an unexpected find, and so happy we came across this. It’s truly a beautiful area of Scotland, the natural beauty here is stunning and I was shocked with the waterfall that was here, I’ve never experienced anything like it. Parking was very fair price, happy to pay as it goes towards the narrow reserve, toilets were clean and information centre staff were very kind. I highly recommend coming here for a few hours to escape the world and take in some stunning nature.

We walked around Loch Kinord on the other side of the road to the Burn O Vat. Beautiful flat walk. Took about 2 hours. Interesting history boards en route. Toilets at Burn O Vat just beyond the car park and a small visitor centre.

Really nice walk around the lake. If you dont stop you can do it around 2 hours. If you stay on the side of parking in a very short walk(15-20 mins) you can go and see a small waterfall.
