Free entry on Christmas day! Beautiful walk must do!
A spectacular hike past a number of waterfalls and great scenery. There is a £10 entrance fee to the walk but I believe the money goes towards the upkeep of the paths on what would be very precarious terrain without them. Impressive waterfalls, great views of Ingleborough and the peace and quiet of the dales once you get above the waterfalls.
Stunning walk up the River Twiss and down the River Doe past incredible waterfalls (6 main falls) currently in full spate. The organised one way path is probably necessary though might possibly feel a little “Disney theme park” on a busy day. Well worth the trip though.
Spectacular scenery, spectacularly busy and spectacularly expensive @£10 per adult!
A fantastic walk with great views! The Waterfalls were spectacular i would highly recommend this walk £10 pp entry includes car park, lots of steps up and down so it's not an easy walk
First time doing Ingleton waterfall walk for me, loved it. X valentines 2022. X
Super nice hike, not long, but really "over hill and dale" :-) chargeable: 10 pounds per nose
If you're after a walk with an excessive amount of waterfalls, then look no further. Around waterfall 4 or 5 (I lost count) a rickety thin bridge has you dangling 50ft above one of the ice-age death canyons where thousands of gallons of water smash their way past jagged rocks below your feet 😬
