High Cascades

High Cascades is a waterfall on Aira Beck in the Lake District, situated upstream from the better-known Aira Force and High Force.

It lies roughly 300 metres beyond High Force along a path that follows the beck northward, and a bridge spans the stream at this point.

The waterfall forms part of a scenic sequence of falls and cascades that draw walkers extending their visit beyond the main Aira Force viewpoint.

The surrounding stretch of beck is noted for its pools and smaller cascades, making the full upstream walk a rewarding addition to the popular Aira Force circuit.
