Buchanty Spout
Buchanty Spout
Buchanty Spout is a small but dramatic waterfall and series of cascades on the River Almond, located just off the B8063 near the hamlet of Buchanty in Perth & Kinross, north of Crieff.
The falls form where the river turns east, tumbling through a stretch of rushing rapids framed by mixed woodland.
The site is best known as a natural salmon leap, where Atlantic salmon can be watched hurling themselves upstream during their autumn spawning run, particularly after heavy rain.
Wildlife watchers have also spotted dippers along the river, and the surrounding woodland puts on a vivid display of colour in autumn. A small car park sits immediately south of the road bridge, with a short two-minute walk to the falls.
The ground around the waterfall is rocky and can be slippery when wet, so care is needed underfoot.
