Top 10 Walks: Yorkshire Dales: Walks to Waterfalls

£5.99

AVAILABLE

This pretty little book gives you short circular walks to the most spectacular waterfalls in the Yorkshire Dales.

Geology and the way it shapes the land have created a countryside tailor-made for the development of waterfalls. The gritstone fells and moors gather copious rainfall, which they shed along countless becks and rivers that erode the rock into twisting gills and valleys.

Where localised geological conditions bring together the grits and limestones, differential erosion creates bands of resistant rocks over which the becks plunge as hidden cataracts and waterfalls, often called forces in the Yorkshire Dales. Each has its own unique form and atmosphere to discover and explore.
