NG5152 : Mouth of the Bearreraig River

near to Bearreraig Bay [water Feature], Highland, Great Britain

Mouth of the Bearreraig River
Mouth of the Bearreraig River
The mouth of the river is always livelier than the upstream sections, because the water that has gone through the turbines of the power station NG5152 : Storr Lochs Hydro Power Station has rejoined it here.
The warning sign is to be taken seriously. Crossing the river to head north up the coast holds a bit of a risk. If the sluices are opened on the dam above the river can become un-fordable, and there is no easy alternative route out other than by boat.
