Aysgarth High Force

Aysgarth High Force is the uppermost of three distinct stages that together form Aysgarth Falls, where the River Ure descends over broad limestone steps across an almost one-mile stretch through Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire.

The falls sit near the village of Aysgarth, surrounded by woodland and farmland, and are designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Like the middle and lower sections, High Force is at its most dramatic after heavy rainfall, when thousands of gallons of water cascade over the wide rock shelves.

Multiple walking and hiking trails in the area pass the feature, making it a popular stop for visitors exploring the national park.
