Black Force is a waterfall on Carlingill Beck in the Howgill Fells, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

It descends in a series of cascades through a deeply incised gully, with exposed rock strata visible along the gorge walls — bent layers near the bottom giving way to great slabs higher up.

The waterfall is most commonly reached by following Carlingill Beck upstream from Carlingill Bridge, a route that requires crossing the beck at points and becomes impassable after heavy rain. The final ascent beside Black Force is a rough scramble.

A path on the eastern edge of the gully offers an alternative approach and leads to a viewpoint above the falls, continuing to a narrow arête before joining the open fell.
