Waterfall:
We went up the usual approach to Dunmore - up Quarry Road, through the houses, in Fintry (although crossing the burn at the bottom needed care!)
up over the stile continuing to an obvious path going left to the waterfall (a cross"roads" really),
before the steeper ascent of the hill.
A wee clamber up to see the waterfall properly,
and then back to the path which heads towards a deep gorge
before heading up to the top of the gorge.
We then turned left and went down towards the lone tree (don't go over the fence)
and followed a grassy path all the way back to the stile.
You could at the top of the gorge turn right and go up to the top of Dunmore from there
and back down the "normal" Dunmore route as an alternative circular walk.
