The Ingleton Waterfalls Trail is a circular walk of about eight kilometres that follows the River Twiss upstream through a series of cascades to the open moorland above, then descends through the River Doe gorge. The trail has been here since 1885 and the path infrastructure — wooden bridges, stone steps cut into the gorge walls — is well-maintained and capable of handling most weathers.
The individual waterfalls vary in character: Thornton Force, the largest, is a curtain of water over a limestone lip with a path that allows you to step behind the fall. Pecca Falls is narrower and faster. Beezley Falls drops into a deep plunge pool that roars after rain. The gorges themselves are perhaps more impressive than the individual falls — the water has cut deeply into the limestone, creating steep-walled passages with ferns and mosses on surfaces that rarely see direct sun.
Admission is charged at the start of the trail; the current fee is payable at a kiosk at the bottom of the village. The route is signposted and waymarked, and cannot easily be confused. Allow two to three hours. The café at the Falls car park makes a reasonable case for a warm drink at the end.
