County Durham - High Force Waterfall

Experience the power of nature at High Force Waterfall

One of the most impressive waterfalls in England, High Force has been plunging gallons and gallons of the River Tees over the gorge and down into the pool below for thousands of years.

High Force Waterfall is situated in the beautiful Upper Teesdale countryside in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Surrounded by a stunning, upland landscape the area offers wide-open moors, flower-rich hay meadows, intimate woods, inky-black night skies, curious wildlife, fascinating industrial heritage and tumbling rivers.

The woodland path to this awe-inspiring 21-metre cascade allows you to enjoy a changing seasonal colour palette from blue summer skies and autumnal leaves to crisp icy winter mornings and the vibrant greens of nature bursting to life in spring.
