Huggill Force

Huggill Force is a waterfall approximately 7 metres high, tucked within a steep, narrow gorge near Bowes and Gilmonby on the edge of Gilmonby Moor in County Durham. It flows on Hug Gill, a tributary of the River Greta in Teesdale.

Despite sitting within open access land, the falls are hidden from the nearby bridleway and reveal themselves only at the very end of a short out-and-back walk across open countryside. The waterfall is considered a lesser-known, quietly atmospheric spot.

Its secluded position at the back of the gorge means it rewards those willing to seek it out.
