Walk Description
This Ingleton Waterfalls Trail walk starts in the car park at the trail's start in Ingleton, Yorkshire Dales and takes about 2 hpours to complete, but allow longer to take in the views!

There is an entrance fee to pay.

We leave the car park and follow the well-made riverside path upstream along the river Twiss, where we soon pass by a money tree.

After heading through Swilla Glen, we then cross the river Twiss by a footbridge. We pass back over it by another footbridge called Pecca Bridge, which affords the first views of the lower parts of Pecca Falls. We then continue on the path alongside the river Twiss as it passes by the upper parts of Pecca Falls.

Pecca Falls is actually a collection of five waterfalls which drop 30 metres over the slate and sandstone. After Pecca Falls, we quickly arrive at Hollybush Spout, and then, in the clearing, we reach Thornton Force on this Ingleton Falls walk.

We then leave the river Twiss and head to the river Doe for the return to Ingleton, with views of Ingleborough ahead. On reaching the river Doe, the first falls you see are the Beezley Falls.

These are soon followed by the Rival Falls, before reaching the smaller waterfalls through Baxenghyll Gorge. Further down the path, you can look back towards the Snow Falls. After that, we cross over another footbridge and leave the river, passing by the disused Storrs Quarry before heading back through the centre of Ingleton to reach the car park.
