Do you have a fear of heights? To get there it is a little bit scary. Single track roads, driving uphill beside the cliff. My husband was so mega stressed. He's a professional driver but anything could go wrong. Also, to get to see the Lealt Falls up close you also have to walk along the wooden bridge that has a platform that allow you to view the falls and take photos. I love it! I am not scared of heights but in back of my mind I was like what if this bridge broke down, what if my phone falls down? What do I do? Anyway, there is nothing to worry about the platform as it was very sturdy and totally safe for all the tourists. Thankfully there were only two people at the time we went there. And within minutes, it just us left. So we had plenty of time to enjoy the view and take photos. And speaking of photos, for some reason they disappeared. I don't know what happened but I definitely checked my phone and they were there. I was using my selfie stick with remote which is now broken. Nice! I only found out yesterday when I was looking for photos from Lealt Falls that they are nowhere to be found along with photos we took at Lealt Viewpoint. They are gone. Luckily, I have the clips I took from the bridge. It's just so weird the photos have all disappeared.


These are screenshot from one of the clips I took. The falls are just pretty. If I can only stay longer to seize the moment I would. Lealt Falls only takes 3 minutes drive from Rigg Viewpoint and 6 minutes from Kilt Rock and Mealt Waterfalls which is our next destination.

The viewpoint from Lealt was just stunning! I wish I have photos I can show. I'm still upset about this. But anyway, like I mentioned earlier if you have a fear of heights this place is not for you. It's quite steep. If I can remember there's a picnic table on each platform. You have to go down to get there and you literally sitting on the cliffs. No barrier and if there is just low enough to stop you standing on the edge. But for me, it's totally safe if you don't play stupid. You can chill and relax while watching the peninsula. The weather was just so nice too! It was sunny. As much as I wanted to see the whole viewpoint but my husband is just too worried. So I thought okay fine to keep my husband happy. Haha.
