Steall Waterfall
River: Allt Coire a' Mhail
Fall: 393 feet

The Steall Waterfall is a spectacular fall in Glen Nevis, Inverness-shire, near Fort William. It is also known as An Steall Bàn, or Steall Falls. It is the second highest waterfall in the United Kingdom, with a single drop of 393 feet.

The fall can be viewed from the path that runs through the Nevis Gorge, an area owned by the John Muir Trust which manages the area for its wilderness qualities. An Steall Bàn means "The White Spout" in Gaelic.
