Mealt waterfall, fed from nearby Mealt Loch, plummets from the top of the cliffs to the rock-laden coast below. In the background, kilt rock can be seen – said to look similar to a pleated kilt.
There is also an aural element to the site. When a strong wind is blowing, a beautiful yet haunting tone seems to emanate from the surrounding area. The instrument emitting the sound is actually the fencing that surrounds the lookout point. Holes facing the sea allow wind into the piping, turning the safety feature into an organ of sorts, providing the sound to accompany the breathtaking views.


To visit, park in the on-site car park (57°36’39.2″N 6°10’22.4″W). Staffin Ecomuseum is also within walking distance.
