Smoo Cave

Smoo Cave is About 1¾ miles (2.7 km) East of Durness, it is well signposted with a car park and well maintained Public Conveniences.
The path down to the cave is well constructed as are the gangways to stop your feet getting wet. The cave entrance is 98 feet across and 50 feet high making it one of the largest in Britain. The inner cave accessible by boat when available has a waterfall which tumbles 69 feet through a sink hole from the Allt Smoo. Unfortunately the river was dry when we were there.

We enjoyed our visit and hopefully the river will be flowing the next time we return.
