The Glen Lyn Gorge & Power of Water Exhibition

See the 1952 Flood level and tour the lower gorge passing the hydroelectric turbines.

See how some of the once destructive waters of the West Lyn River
are now harnessed to provide hydro electricity for the village.

Children of all ages can make electricity, spin the water wheels and fire water canons too!

Many of the attractions are either indoors or under cover,
while the woodlands give good shelter. Fun in any weather!

A gentle walk leads to Moses’s Pool deep within the wooded gorge, where you can peacefully sit beside the river.

You can extend your visit by taking the steep path to the upper gorge.

Lovely waterfalls lead to an impressive ravine, where the intake works fill the underground pipe, which drops to the hydro-electric turbine houses
75 metres below.



Part of The Glen Lyn Gorge is an unspoilt visitor attraction -
enjoy learning about renewable energy in a natural environment
Water power can help provide us with a sustainable future
without contributing to global warming and climate change.
