    Hiking

    How Stean Gorge is one of Nidderdale’s natural wonders. This spectacular limestone ravine, carved out by thousands of years of waterflow, is up to 30 feet (nine metres) deep in places and has caves, narrow paths, and dizzying bridges to explore. There is also a café, outdoor activity centre, and campsite.
