Gently Dreaming
A waterfall on the lower slopes of Creag an Fhuathais cascades between the rocks and heather of Glen Ey in the Scottish Highlands.

Tumbling
Cycling along Glen Ey, I could hear this waterfall in the distance. I just had to leave the main track and explore further and boy, was it worth it!! The waterfall in the deep shadow of Creag an Fhuathais in Glen Ey finds its way between the dark rocks of the Scottish Highlands.

Cooling Spray
Cycling up Glen Ey in the Scottish Highlands I heard a waterfall over to my left. Leaving the bike and the main track and cutting through heather and marsh I explored further and came across this lovely waterfall in the deep shadow of Creag an Fhuathais. But we've lingered long enough, it's chilly in the shadows and there's the rest of the Glen to explore.

Crossing the Ey Burn
Once again we find ourselves cycling across a bridge over the Ey Burn. Hemming in Glen Ey is the deeply shadowed Creag an Fhuathais (remember those waterfalls in its shadow?), and on the left Creag an Lochain, while in the distance is Can na Crochaide.
