Wensley Falls

Wensley Falls

Just outside the busy market town of Leyburn, is the small village of Wensley which lends its name to probably the best known of Yorkshires' Dales. 

It lays 1 1/2 miles to the south west on the A684 road to Hawes.

 Here is hidden another gem of a waterfall. 

Park by White Rose Candles and follow the sign, 2 minutes walk will bring you to the rear of the old mill and the falls.

Walk with care!

Redmire Force

Redmire Force

A Bit further down stream from the more famous Aysgarth Falls, lies Redmire Force. Not quite a splendid as the aforementioned falls but just as lovely. 

Easiest access is from Swinithwaite on the main Wensleydale road from Leyburn to Hawes. Park in the car park of Berry's Farm shop (if its open) from where sustenance may be obtained (for a fee! LOL) on the return journey. 

A  map of the route ( and other walks can be obtained by following the link) I have reproduce part of it here - Follow the red line across the meadows to the falls. Well signposted.

Well Sign posted!

Harmby Falls

Harmby Falls

Hidden away at the side of the A684 Leyburn to Bedale Road, in the village of Harmby are these delightful falls. 

Park at the side of the main road through the village.

The falls are signposted. 

Follow the path down the 2 flights of steps and head forward towards the footbridge.

Follow the path

 There are 2 main falls, go through the gate at the side of the bridge to access the ones on the left. The ones on the right drop away into a steep-sided valley and are difficult to access.
