Dungeon Ghyll Force

Dungeon Ghyll Force is an impressive 40-foot waterfall set within a deep ravine in Great Langdale, Cumbria. Fed by Dungeon Ghyll, it lies to the northwest of New Dungeon Ghyll and can be glimpsed from the path leading up to Pike Howe.

The surrounding gorge has drawn visitors for centuries — Wordsworth described the ravine in his poem "The Idle Shepherd-Boys," and the site was a favourite among Victorian poets.

Parking for the walk up to the falls is available at the foot of Harrison Stickle, making it a popular starting point for exploring the Langdale Pikes.
