Emergency services scrambled to the picturesque Rogie Falls, near Contin in Ross-shire, at around 1.45pm yesterday, as a major rescue operation was sparked. The woman was reportedly a tourist in the area and had been with others when she fell into the water. Police, Dundonnell Mountain Rescue, HM Coastguard, a helicopter and the Scottish Ambulance service were all sent to the scene.

Woodlands surround the waterfalls, with a bridge over them connecting to forest paths.
