Tips

Thomason Foss is a beautiful waterfall in an idyllic wooded ravine. The waterfall is accessed by a superb trail through the woodland. It’s well worth combining Thomason Foss with nearby Mallyan Spout waterfall, which is the tallest in the North York Moors.

Note that the track from Beck Hole to this waterfall is very boggy in places, and part of the track is very high up and narrow, making it slightly difficult to navigate in summer when the gorse bushes are encroaching over the track. Slow and steady with good footwear is essential. There are 2 further waterfalls upstream, Water Ark Foss and Walk Mill Foss, but they can't be accessed from this track from Beck Hole, you would need take either the footpath from Darnholm, or the footpath from Lins Farm just to the northeast of Beck Hole.

Note the path is a little treacherous and is not recommended for anyone with reduced mobility. A lovely waterfall once you get to the end of the path. One for the wild swimmers/dippers
