Plodda Falls (Gaelic: Eas Ploda) is a waterfall, situated 5 km south-west of the village of Tomich, near Glen Affric, in the Highlands of Scotland. The falls are 46 m high, and are on the Allt na Bodachan, near where it flows into the Abhainn Deabhag, which in turn joins with the River Affric to form the River Glass.Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 scale Explorer map series, sheets 309-470{{cite web|title=Plodda Falls - Glen Affric|url=http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/forestry.nsf/byunique/infd-88qkl8|publisher=Forestry Commission Scotland|accessdate=31 March 2011|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111016035450/http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/forestry.nsf/byunique/infd-88qkl8|archivedate=16 October 2011}}

Plodda Falls are a popular tourist attraction. In 1880, a footbridge was built across the top of the falls, by Lord Tweedmouth, who owned the Guisachan estate. In 2005, the Forestry Commission found this bridge to be dangerous, and it was closed. It was replaced by a new viewing platform in 2009.{{cite web|title=Footbridge Closure At Plodda Falls, By Glen Affric|url=http://www.forestry.gov.uk/newsrele.nsf/WebPressReleases/045B7F0F37F613D9802570D7005C73E9|accessdate=31 March 2011|date=19 December 2005|publisher=Forestry Commission Scotland|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100402220206/http://www.forestry.gov.uk/newsrele.nsf/WebPressReleases/045B7F0F37F613D9802570D7005C73E9|archivedate=2 April 2010}}{{cite news|title=Beauty spot bridge to be replaced|url=http://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/news/fullstory.php/aid/8699/Beauty_spot_bridge_to_be_replaced.html|accessdate=6 April 2011|newspaper=Inverness Courier|date=10 February 2009}}{{dead link|date=March 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}
