This is a very popular return walk round the delightful Lynn Glen to view the numerous cascading waterfalls tumbling over the rock bed of the river Caaf Water (photo on the right). The biggest being Lynn Spout which drops about four metres. The snicket gates are narrow and there is a short flight of steps. Although some sections of the path may become a bit muddy after rain the route is very well maintained by the local Council.
The walk is suitable for children, teenagers, senior citizens and anyone in-between. Excellent for dogs, but hopeless for wheelchairs and buggies. Suitable footwear will be anything flat soled, and there should be no problems for anyone wearing shorts. There are refreshments and toilets in pubs in the town and a few bench seats scattered along the route. Also, there are eating places in the town such as Top Wok and Irvines, and if you book in advance, you should be able to get a good meal and a drink; an excellent finish to a good walk.
