Aysgarth Falls Yorkshire Dales National Park Visitor Centre

This series of cascading waterfalls is truly unique. You will get three visiting points, upper, middle and lower fall, to enjoy the fantastic beauty. The walking trail is also excellent and easy to cover. A must-view site in Yorkshire Dale!

Lovely set of waterfalls divided into upper, middle and lower. Car park and visitors centre well maintained and reasonable cost to park. Nice walk to the lower falls through wooded area and well worth visiting.

Great place to walk, car park at the top, or at the bottom. The same with facilities and places to eat.
The earlier you arrive the easier it is to park. Weekends are obviously busier.
Easy enough footpaths, some places can be muddy or rocky. Down by the river does have areas that are very slippery.
Dogs are allowed, but must be on leads.
Car parking charges are reasonable, up to 2hrs £3.50, over 2hrs £5.50

Fantastic short walk up and down the river from the car park. The falls are more impressive than I expected, the whole area is well maintained. The parking near the visitor center was minimum 2 hours.

Fabulous walk to see all 3 of the Upper, Middle and Lower falls. Doesn't take long at all. Could easily just do the Upper as it's a stones throw from the car park. Also a fab tea room right beside it too.

Picturesque set of low waterfalls along the river. Visitor's centre with pay and display parking, cafe, and public toilets. Several short walks up and down the falls from the carpark. It was peaceful when we visited mid week although the visitors centre and cafe were both closed. There are picnic benches and plenty of grass to sit on for a packed lunch.

Lovely easy walks to Upper, Middle and Lower Falls. Beautiful wildflowers and birds. Nice Visitor’s Center with friendly staff.

Super place with lots of parking and walk options. The falls are split into upper, middle and lower and all are easy to walk to.
We did a wood walk afterwards which was really muddy and wet but a lot of fun. The visitor centre was closed for New Year but the walks are still well signposted.

The falls speak for themselves, stunning and always different with each visit. The visitor centre and cafe are staffed by the most friendly and pleasant staff, and the bacon buttie is one of the best. Can't rate it highly enough 👍

Decent chargable national park car park with toilets. Both upper and lower falls paths accessible from here by foot. Not really suitable for wheelchair users or people unsteady although part of the falls area and views maybe with a little care. There is alternative chargeable parking at the falls and if you park a few hundred metres away you may be able to park for free. There is somewhere to eat nearby. The whole area is beautiful so you can't really go wrong.

Get here early enough (before 10am on a weekend) and parking is no issue; by 11am you’ll potentially be struggling, especially in school holidays.
Good facilities, toilets etc.
£3.50 for 2 hours parking, £5.50 for 4 hours (correct as of 14/04/24)

We arrived on a warm sunny winters day, we parked on site at the visitors center. It was only a short stroll to all the falls walking through some woodlands.
Would we visit again 🤔

Definitely but maybe in the summer with a picnic

Lovely little walk, there are shorter walks (1 mile)najslonger walks (2 1/2 mile), the falls were beautiful , especially after all the rain we've had. There is a visitor center with shop and cafe too but didn't eat there.

We went here on a Sunday and there were still a few spaces left in the cat park at 11.30am when we arrived. The car park itself was in a great location and the facilities were great. The falls themselves are only a short walk away and it is very well signposted to each of the sections of the waterfalls. The viewing points are very good for taking photos. Although we didn't stop for anything to eat, the food smelt delicious at the place near the road bridge that crosses over at the upper falls. We paid £3.50 for 2 hours parking which was just enough time to visit the falls and have a picnic. It is well worth a visit here. Highly recommended.

Lovely place for a wander. The falls are beautiful.
Tea room was closed but we did go on a Monday morning.
Just a lovely place for a walk espe3as the weather was great

Beautiful area to visit, extremely accessible. More impressive today due to the extra rainfall.
£3,50 to park for 2 hours.

We came here on a rainy day and still enjoyed it. Plenty of parking at the visitor centre (nb it has a podpoint electric charger for those that have electric cars). Prices for parking was OK considering you can spend a couple of hours here. Two hours is £3.50, more than that £5.50. We had young kids so we did the circular 2.2km route which was a nice walk to the upper, middle and lower falls. There is a walk for everyone - more adventurous walkers can go much further than the marked paths. Don't let rain put you off, it's even better seeing the falls when the river is full with water!

The first part takes you to the upper falls and back to the walk up the hill. Signposted quite well. A short circular or a longer walk to Castle Bolton/Cauldron Falls.

I just love this place its great for walks and photography it's different every time we visit

We visited the falls after a period of heavy rain and were spectacular. There are 2 good-sized car parks. The whole area is stunning, with a beautiful walk through the woods to the lower falls. After spending time in the splendour of the upper falls, we carried on and had a lovely valley walk to Askrigg.
