Eas Bàn, meaning 'White Waterfall' is a waterfall on the on stream known as the Allt Mòr (‘Great Stream’) in Wester Ross. The stream runs north-east from the rugged slopes above Glen Elchaig and tumbles over a cliff into the Glen in the Eas Bàn.

Within the glen, below the cliffs, the stream joins the River Elchaig just as it becomes tidal at Camas-luinie.

Other waterfalls

There is another waterfall a short way up the glen known as Eas Bàn, to the east: the eastern Eas Bàn in on the Allt Bàn an Lì-ruighe, a stream running from the bare slopes of the Inverinate Forest.

A more famous waterfall, the Falls of Glomach, tumble into the glen above two and a half miles west of the Eastern Eas Bàn.
