What a lovely place Knaresborough is to visit! It's only 25 minutes on the train from York and has quite spectacular scenery. The weather was great today so we walked around the town in the sunshine going down from the station to the riverside and under the Viaduct, along the riverside and up through Berbra Gardens. You need to be steady on your feet as some of the slopes and steps are pretty steep but there is lots to see and do. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful, iconic, magnificent. Knaresborough is a pretty town with the Viaduct the focal point. Wonderful wandering around the town and doing the Riverside walk, several different options accessible from the Castle and the Conyngham carpark. The walk we did along the flat path was beautiful, and the houses we passed, wow, amazing. The Riverside circular was also lovely. Love Knaresborough and will definitely be back.

I went to this place with my friends and we never regret it. The viaduct is so cool and you can rent a boat for £5-£6. After riding the boat, you can go to the castle nearby or enjoy river Nidd with eating something. There are riverside restaurants and you will never be disappointed to visit this place. I went from Leeds by taking National Rail. I guess for you who keen of visiting Yorkshire, this place is a must visit!

The Knaresborough Viaduct is a striking railway bridge spanning the River Nidd in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, England. Completed in 1851, it stands 78 feet high and features four arches. This impressive structure is a key part of the Harrogate Line and offers picturesque views of the river and the historic town. The viaduct remains a vital and scenic transportation route, attracting visitors and photographers alike.
