Scaleber Force Waterfall is a stunning natural attraction nestled in the Yorkshire Dales near Settle, England. This enchanting waterfall is renowned for its serene beauty and picturesque setting. The water cascades gracefully over a series of limestone rocks, creating a mesmerizing display, particularly after a period of rainfall when the flow is at its strongest.

The surrounding area is equally charming, with lush greenery and a tranquil ambiance that make it a perfect spot for nature lovers and photographers. The short walk to the waterfall is relatively easy, though it can be a bit muddy, so sturdy footwear is recommended.

Overall, Scaleber Force is a hidden gem that offers a peaceful escape and a glimpse of the breathtaking landscapes that the Yorkshire Dales are famous for. Whether you're an avid hiker or simply looking for a serene spot to unwind, this waterfall is definitely...

What a little beauty! I've passed this place before but had no clue it was there. Very glad Google pointed it out to me on our way back from Malham.

I will say it's a very treacherous set of steps down to the waterfall! Reminded me of LOTR stairs to Mordor before facing the spider - they were incredibly steep and the stones were somewhat slippy. So even as experienced hikers it took a lot to be safe.

A lovely little spot to visit! Would recommend for a quick pit stop, leg stretch and photograph. Not for the feint hearted thiugg as it is a test of...

Lovely, tall waterfall. We parked on the side of the road (6ish spaces by the waterfall and a few more just past the waterfall) and took the 5-minute walk down. It's steep down, not too muddy. We went the day after it rained, and it was slippy in places, but still a decent walk, we were wearing vans shoes. You can walk halfway down and along to stand at the bottom of the main waterfall, or you can walk all the way down and stand at the 2nd part of the waterfall where you can see the whole waterfall area. You can continue to walk down the stream from here, too. You can also stand at the top of the waterfall. Abount a minute walk along the wall separating you from the road, and you can see the stream come through under the bridge, and on to the top of the waterfall...
