Description
Lovely river swim, it does get deep in paces but most of it was hip height. It was pretty fast flowing and very high when we went but it was very manageable for us novices. Beware of rocks under foot. There's a wooden broadwalk which you can store your stuff and clamber down and clamber up.
Getting There
Cross the stepping stones and follow the path past reynards cave to the first wooden walk way.
Accessibility
Stones were slippery and the amount of water from the day had dislodged one of the stepping stones which meant having to step into the river knee deep to cross. Hopefully this will be sorted soon.
