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!
