The dramatic gorge and waterfall at Lealt rank as one of the hidden pleasures of Skye. Lealt waterfall is located 7 kilometers south of Staffin, south of Culnacnoc on the Isle of Skye in Scotland (United Kingdom). After Culnacnoc, along road A855, you pass a river where Lealt gorge is located, there is a small parking. A short and easy walk (towards the see) leads to the first viewpoint where you can look into the depths of the gorge and see the Lealt waterfall finding its way (in two steps) down the gorge and ends 90 meters lower. Further on there is a second viewing platform with a wider view over the cliffs and the sea.
