It is a slot gorge, or box-canyon, cut by glacial meltwater between 2.6 million and 11,500 years ago. Through its narrow and steep-sided length flows the water of the River Droma, dropping 100m over the course of its 1.25km journey in a series of waterfalls, the most dramatic of which is the 45m Falls of Measach. For many, the highlight of a visit is a walk across the bridge and the deep chasm below. Spanning just over 25m from ledge to ledge the bridge sways gently in the wind, providing an exhilarating experience! It was built in 1874 by Sir John Fowler, one of the designers of the famous Forth Rail Bridge. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/4318/6c72653f-c7dc-4d5b-af58-424b6da85ca5.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Corrieshalloch Gorge National Nature Reserve 20 min drive \- 29.3 km - Falls of Rogie 18 min drive \- 25.5 km - Loch Achilty 19 min drive \- 26.1 km - Corrieshalloch Gorge 21 min drive \- 29.9 km - Falls of Measach 21 min drive \- 30.3 km ### Getting around - Garve Station 8 min drive - Inverness (INV) 54 min drive ### Restaurants - Aultguish Inn 4 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Highlands at its best pet-friendly? ### How much does it cost to stay at Highlands at its best? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Highlands at its best? ### What time is check-out at Highlands at its best? ### Where is Highlands at its best located? ## Have a question?
