A lovely waterfall right next to the visitor car park in the beautiful Glen Trool. The waterfall is visible from the road bridge. Two places to swim here one above the falls and one below. The pool above is easier to access and is slower moving. You can swim up under the bridge. To get to the pool below you have to climb down some rocks. Once in you can mess about in the small white water pool, swim in the current and swim downstream. Travel North on the A714 from Newton Stewart. Turn right to Glen Trool Village. There is a nice pub, The House O Hill, that does an excellent homemade burger. Turn right after the village sign posted the Glen Trool Visitor centre.
