Skyfall Road and Waterfall

Glen Etive is a 12-mile long valley in the Scottish Highlands. It is known for its dramatic mountain scenery. The sweeping vistas along the Glen Etive Road were featured in the James Bond movie Skyfall. The road we traveled is known as Skyfall or James Bond Road.

Situated off the road, not far from the Skyfall viewpoint, was Etive Mor or Glen Etive waterfall, also called Skyfall waterfall. It wasn't the clearest day for picture-taking, but the falls and surrounding area were still breathtaking.
