Kisdon Force
Another of the "Keld" Waterfalls and probably the trickiest to reach.
Leave the car park by the entrance and cross to the sign post "Public Bridleway Coast to Coast" in the direction of Muker.
Walk past the sign post to East Gill Force, After approx 600m there is a finger post, "FP Kidson Upper Force" showing the way to the Upper falls. This path is narrow and quite steep and slippery in parts. We managed to get down to the Falls with the help of some strategically placed bailing twine but this route is not recommended unless you are very fit. Walk past this first signpost and continue until you see a gap in the wall, go through here and follow the path back towards the falls. Although this route is still quite steep, it is easier than the first option but still slippy when wet.

Unless you enjoy abseiling, ignore this sign and continue onwards |
The final part of "Route 1!" |
Look out for this Hole in the Wall for the alternative option! |
