Baxenghyll Gorge
On
Ingleton Waterfalls Trail,
Ingleton, Lancashire
|
Location Guide |
| At this point the River Doe has carved a deep
narrow gorge into the rock, believed to be 60ft down.
There are a number of
twists and turns and plenty of opportunities to overlook the spectacular sight
both below and around you. There are several falls within this section as the
river plunges down through, but they do not appear to have names.
At one point
there is a viewing platform across the gorge, giving a good view of the river a long way down below.
Eventually the gorge opens out into the first
of a number of rocky areas. There is a steep
set of steps down to this area, the wooden path is surrounded by mini waterfalls
coming off the hillside around. The river runs on through and some people picnic
on the limestone rock bed amongst the small rock pools of water, and you can, if
it's not covered in water and you can figure out how to get down there.
