Description

Approach by Car: Head to Ingleton, (Yorkshire) town centre, Then follow Thornton lane to the car park on the map. depending on season these car parks may very get busy, if you're planning to visit during peak summer, aim to arrive before mid day. 🚩The advised route is to park at Ingleton waterfall trail car park and walk around in a clockwise direction however this will take significantly longer. Approach by foot: From the car follow the track towards the river then once you reach the river Twiss, walk TR until you reach the first big waterfall. Follow the tracks when possible.

Canyon Experience :

A short fun canyon if your in the area. A few good abseils and jumps. Bolts are in good condition. Pools are clear.
Always very busy with tourists
