カウグリーン貯水池での 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Be careful on the top looking over.

Nice easy walk from the car park at Cowgreen reservoir.

There is quite a large complex of stone sheep pens here, along with an attractive pond within the confines of the wall. More importantly, this is your turn off point on a relatively distinct path that goes all the way to the cairned top of Viewing Hill.

While this chain suspension bridge over the River Tees was built in 1830, there was an even older one at the same location dating back to 1741, which could have been the first of its kind in England. It is located right next to the Low Force waterfalls.

With a drop of 21 meters, this is one of the largest waterfalls in England and certainly one of the most impressive. The area also holds geological significance, as some of the rocks you see here are up to 300 million years old.

Low Force is a series of waterfalls on the River Tees that, despite not having great height like the nearby High Force waterfall, are of stunning beauty. Some parts of the film '1917' were shot in this area.

A nice easy walk on a clearly marked path takes you all the way to High Force.

Don't pay to access from the High Force Hotel. Take the free path downstream, cross the footbridge and walk up the other side. if on the Pennine Way you will already be on the correct side (river to your right as you walk upstream).
