    Tips

    Hiking

    Dash Falls are a series of cascades, as the Dash Beck tumbles between the shoulders of Great Calva and Bakestall. It's a conspicuous sight on this part of the Cumbria Way.

    The legendary fellwalker, illustrator and guidebook writer Alfred Wainwright remarked that 'there are many finer individual waterfalls in Lakeland, but for a grand succession of falls the first place must undoubtedly go to Dash Falls.'
