Hardraw Force Waterfall Yorkshire Dales National trust female traveller Ingleton waterfalls Malham

Waterfall and Woodlands Walk
Hardraw Force England's Highest Single Drop Waterfall is set in fifteen acres of woodland.
In the late 1800's the Lord Wharncliffe constructed a series of pathways (some paved with local stone) and bridges linking the Inn, Waterfall, the upper Shaw Gill Falls and his Simonstone Hall Shooting Lodge.
Hardraw Force is a waterfall on Hardraw Beck in Hardraw Scar, a wooded ravine just outside the hamlet of Hardraw, 0.9 miles (1.5 km) north of the town of Hawes, Wensleydale, in the Yorkshire Dales. The Pennine Way long distance footpath passes close by.
Comprising a single drop of 100 feet (30 m) from a rocky overhang, Hardraw Force is claimed to be England's highest unbroken waterfall at least discounting underground falls. The underground waterfall inside nearby Gaping Gill on the western flank of Ingleborough has an unbroken fall of more than 300 feet (91 m).
Geologically the bed of the river and plunge pool is shale; on top of that is sandstone and the top layer is carboniferous limestone.
It is on private land but public access to the falls is available through a turnstile behind the Green Dragon Inn. The current cost is £4 per adult, £2.50 per child. Access behind the falls is now prohibited.
Both J. M. W. Turner and William Wordsworth visited the waterfall and both men stayed at the Green Dragon Inn.
The falls were used as a location in the film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, in the scene where Maid Marian catches Robin Hood bathing under a waterfall.
Hardraw Force is the setting for a brass-band competition held annually on the second Sunday in September. The competition was first held in the natural amphitheatre of the falls in 1884 when six bands took part; the competition lapsed in 1927 but was revived in 1976. In recent years two other musical events have started up at the falls: the Hawdraw Bash is a folk-rock concert in early July and the Hardraw Gathering is a three-day festival of traditional music at the end of July.

Lovely video so nice, to hear the sound of the waterfall. Instead of the horrible music in other videos. I went there years ago. I was given a ride from the train station. I do not remember paying, to go thru the pub. But I do remember weirdly; having to go thru a pub to visit it. It is beautiful!

Normally I add music to my videos but this one I didn't spoil the sound of nature. Yes everything is still the same and they looked after the area well without disturbing the nature :)
