Falls of Shin

Just 19 miles from Dornoch, between Bonar Bridge and Lairg are the Falls of Shin. The Falls are spectacular and very easily accessible, just a short walk from the road and car park.

For much of the year Shin Falls are recognised as one of Scotland’s best places to see salmon leaping. Depending on the weather, fish can usually be seen jumping from mid May until late autumn as they make their way up river to spawn.

There are a range of woodland walks from the Falls car park from 20 minutes to over an hour, as well as a woodland play area (Suitable for children and adults!).

The Salt and Salmon Company provide catering in both the restaurant and ‘Salt House’ shack.
