Where the scene in Harry Potter was filmed where Harry and Hermione sat in the Deathly Hallows. Harry & Hermione set up camp in a tent on the Limestone Pavement at the top of Malham Cove, scenes from the film feature views across Malhamdale including the view to Cawden and down to Malham Village and Kirkby Malham. There is amazing views from this point over the scarred landscape. Malham Cove is a 70m (230ft) high curved crag of carboniferous limestone formed after the last ice age. Meltwater, particularly from Malham Tarn, cut back the cove as it fell over the edge as a waterfall. This erosion took place more actively at the lip of the fall, hence the curved shape. The cove was formed by glaciers that plucked rock from the cliff face and carried it away, and by meltwater that eroded the cliff face after the glaciers melted. The top of the cove is a limestone pavement with a distinctive pattern of limestone blocks called clints and fissures called grykes. The grykes have a more humid and warmer microclimate than the pavement, which supports different plant life. The top of the limestone has dry, stony conditions that support plants like Rock Rose and Thyme. Malham Cove once had a waterfall that was larger than Niagara Falls. The last time water flowed over the waterfall was in the 19th century, until extreme rain in 2015. Malham Cove is a short walk from the village of Malham, and is popular with rock climbers. Malham Cove has been featured in several films and TV shows, including Wuthering Heights, the previously mentioned Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and The Trip.

Malham Cove is a large curved limestone formation a short walk from the village of Malham. It was formed by a waterfall carrying meltwater from glaciers at the end of the last Ice Age. Easy access to the cove from Malham and there are steps to the side of the cove which allow you to climb to the top. Careful very slippery at the top when on the limestone pavement in wet conditions.

Limestone pavement above Mallam.incredable

The 70 metre (230ft) high, gently curving cliff of white limestone is a Yorkshire Dales gem. It has some unique and rare limestone formations at the top of the cliff. You may recognise scenes from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows which featured the unique limestone pavement and views down to Malham Village and Kirkby Malham.

Not accessible if your not willing to do a Little Rock climbing!

Hull Pot is an amazing collapsed cavern that is now just an open limestone scar measuring 91 metres (300 feet) long by 18 metres (60 feet) deep. In dry weather, like today unfortunately, Hull Pot Beck goes underground before it gets to the rim, but in wet weather, it gives way overground to form a stunning waterfall. A stunning place to spend some time!

Add to your route if there has been heavy rainfall so you can admire this natural beauty

Hull Pot, on the western side of Pen-y-Ghent, is a collapsed cavern, and an impressive hole measuring 91m (300ft) long by 18m (60ft) deep. In the late 18th century, in a guidebook published, it was called 'a Hulpit', and the author stated that it "would have appeared like the inside of an enormous old Gothic castle, the high ruinous walls of which were left standing after the roof was fallen in".

If you are feeling brave and you are good at climbing, you can go up the waterfall and follow a path upto the top of Gordale Scar, but it's not easy and the flow of the water can change daily depending on weather and rain etc so this can increase the difficulty and danger, and plus like myself you might get wet feet lol.

Gordale Scar is a stunning natural wonder which is not that hard to navigate even if you're not familiar with the area. To make your experience more enjoyable, make sure to plan your route and be prepared for the steep climb up to the top of the waterfall. Be sure to pack appropriate gear for the weather conditions, as the gorge can be slippery and wet. Wearing sturdy shoes with good grip, and bringing waterproof clothing can help ensure you have a comfortable and safe experience.

At the top of the cove, you are treated to stunning views of the surrounding limestone pavement, green hills, and the impressive 260-foot high cliff face. The limestone pavement is a unique geological feature that formed over gazillion of years, and is now a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its rare plant and animal life. The top of Malham Cove was used as a filming location for the Harry Potter movie series. In Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, Part I, the characters Harry and Hermione set up camp on the Limestone Pavement at the top of Malham Cove, and the area was used for several other scenes in the movie. With its breathtaking vistas and natural splendor, the Top of Malham Cove is a must-see destination in the Yorkshire Dales.

Hiking up the waterfall area is dangerous at many times of the year...

Beautiful view from limestone rocks (about 80m high). Nice, not hard walk

Brilliant walk, up to the Cove. Great views well worth it when you get there

Formed on Middle Craven Fault, the first thing that is likely to strike you is just how deep this gigantic collapsed cave system is. The path leading here is easy terrain, too, making this a case of maximum payoff for comparatively little effort — certainly in comparison with making it to the top of the Cove. Tired or not, we certainly don’t advise rushing this part of the adventure as you really don’t see places like this every day.

Probably the best place in Yorkshire for a picnic, not least if you manage to miss the crowds that can be sizeable during peak times and the busy season.

Malham Cove, where the cliff face stretches up an impressive 260 feet. The very top is badly eroded, and geology fans will be interested to know the limestone pavement is of a particularly rare pattern for this part of England. Spend some time taking in the raw majesty from the foot of the rock, which was carved out over centuries as the glacier that once stood here melted. A great place for echoes and acoustics.

The grass sides can be particularly slippery in or after the rain. So be careful when approaching the edge. Although the pot is beautiful in the sun, it comes alive after heavy rain when natural waterfalls form.
