Goit Stock Waterfall — Attraction in Bradford

A beautiful walk to a big waterfall. I took the route from Goit Stock Lane through the private housing then through the snicket that has a 'waterfall this way' sign on it. Keep going till you get to the waterfall with the metal steps next to it. You can go left at the wooden bridge to get back to the main road, or go right for another longer round route. The rocks can be slippery in the rain and it can be dangerous when the water is high - be warned that in high water that the path can be almost completely covered with water, it isn't all flat and it's not a walk for those who are beginners/ that aren't great with uneven surfaces and clambering over rocks. I enjoyed it although some parts were challenging. Looking at other people's photos from summer on here - I can tell the difference between the water when they were there, and when I was there in December. There are plenty of signs saying not to swim, please listen to...

Goit Stock Waterfall, tucked away in the peaceful woods near Bingley—just a short drive from Leeds—is one of West Yorkshire’s hidden natural treasures. This enchanting waterfall cascades about 20 feet over rugged layers of gritstone and shale, formed thousands of years ago as softer rock eroded beneath the harder stone above, creating the dramatic drop you see today.

Surrounded by lush green woodland and the gentle flow of Harden Beck, the falls create a magical atmosphere—especially after rainfall, when the water rushes with full force and the sound echoes through the forest. The trail leading to the waterfall is a moderate woodland walk, offering scenic views, birdsong, and the soothing sound of flowing water all along the way.

Perfect for photographers, nature lovers, and anyone seeking a tranquil escape, Goit Stock Waterfall is a reminder of how beautifully nature sculpts its...
