Lealt Falls, Isle Of Skye

The River Lealt or Abhainn an Lethuillt to give it the Gaelic name flows down from the Trotternish ridge to the Sound of Raasay and the sea between Skye and the mainland. The river is seen here crashing through Lealt Gorge and over a series of falls of about 295 ft/90 mtrs in height. The water is often orange in colour due to the surrounding peat.
