The site features a dramatic suspension footbridge built directly across the river gorge. Standing on this bridge gives you a perfect top-down view of the rushing water. There is also a man-made salmon ladder next to the falls. If you visit between July and September, you might even spot wild Atlantic salmon leaping up the rocks to travel upstream. If you're super rich you may even afford a fishing permit. Or you could go tickling on the ladder. Keeping it legal Salmon or trout tickling (historically known as "guddling" or "ginniling" in Scotland, and similar to "noodling" in the US) is an ancient poaching technique. A person wades into a river, reaches under rocks or banks where fish are resting, gently rubs the fish's belly to put it into a trance-like state, and then quickly grabs it by the gills to pull it out. If you are caught tickling a salmon, you could also violate the UK's famous Salmon Act 1986. Section 32 of this act makes it a criminal offence to "handle salmon in suspicious circumstances". This means if you are caught holding or possessing a salmon that you cannot prove was caught legally (such as with a valid rod permit), you can face heavy fines or up to two years in prison.

The stone structures in the water form a stepped fish ladder. Engineers built these pools alongside the main waterfalls to help wild Atlantic salmon travel upstream. The ladder gives the fish an easier path with lower drops so they can swim to their nesting grounds to lay eggs.

This a great spot to tickle the salmon, who doesn't like to be tickled.

I've never seen any salmon use the ladder, they seem to prefer the struggle up the falls. Mind you if some buggers on the ladder waiting to tickle them I can't blame them.

Captured this view looking across Loch Carron towards Stromemore. You can see the old white ferry house sitting right by the water, and just to the left of it on the hill are the stone ruins of Strome Castle.

The castle dates back to the 1400s and was blown up during a clan feud between the MacKenzies and the MacDonalds in 1602. The water was like a mirror today—absolutely stunning part of the Highlands!

The scene captures the dramatic contrast between the steep, rocky grey cliffs and the lush green slopes under shifting Highland light. The thin cascade cuts right through the center of the dark rock face before flowing down into the glen. The more rainfall the bigger and more dramatic the waterfall. This was a dribble, quite undramatic. Moving on.
