Perusing the maps while planning a visit to Raven's Rock Gorge we noticed the nearby notation for the waterfalls of Achness - actually on the signage board as the Cassley Falls - and decided, as we were in the area, we thought we would pay it a short visit.

What a hidden gem of a spot! Car parking for 3 or 4 cars on a single track road, a short 3 to 5 minute walk through beautiful woodland - serenaded by birdsong and teased by the sound of the falls - and then the open vistas of the falls - not massive in height, but the River Cassley is a large river, and the series of falls is both impressive and picturesque.

Add in the fly fisherman seeking Salmon, the sunny day, spring colours on the trees and a perfectly sited bench to sit on, and a relaxing time was had by us all.

I flew with the AVATA2 and AIR3, both of which performed well, there is another set of falls further up the river, perhaps next time we visit we may take a walk up there - we are back in that area on June for a week, although by then I am sure the Midges will be out and looking for targets!

I have edited the link as I have a slightly improved edit, with a better opening first shot...

Beautiful place. Looking forward to see your views of the upper falls. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks... I have a wee bot of footage of them, may try and get a video of that together in the near future, but it was at the limit of VLOS and I was struggling with transmission, may have to take a walk there in 6 weeks time when we are back in the area :)
 
Awesome video!
