Excellent parking and picnic facilities. Also very good maintenance of footpaths. Well signposted routes, with shorter and longer walks available. Interesting enough to hold the attention of our children and such a stunning place.We didn't go into the visitor centre but it's prominently located in the car park for those that need it.
beautiful walks and scenery, took some super photos. Not too hard to walk up and worth every step - Only cost us a fiver to park for a good day out. We went in march but im sure in the summer you could spend a whole day here taking in the sounds of nature - heard a woodpecker saw plenty of bird life didn't spot a red squirrel though even though we looked hard.
We loved our walk to the falls. They were very impressive and worth braving the cold and wet weather.
Nice little walk for all ages, beautiful waterfall and well preserved nature walks. Excellent photo ops at every corner .. Nice little tea room outside the parking, good food and good service there. Highly recommend this as a must see if your in the area
I think the parking fee is especially high...I know its NT but £5 for 2 hours is a lot! Make sure you get all the way to the top as the views are amazing. You get to see far out onto Ullswater. We walked up past the picnic benches, turning left. A few slippy areas but that shouldn't be a problem if you have proper footwear. Not buggy friendly by any stretch of the imagination. .. Lots of tree stumps and rocks to sit and admire the view (and rest little and big legs). Crossed the new wooden bridge to head back down. More than one route to take so no need to rush. The only thing that spoiled our afternoon were the neatly hung bags of dog muck on the trees. Why pick it up if you are just going to leave it behind? ? Dirty people. ..
A lovely walk up the 3 waterfalls at Aira Force. There are a few steps, but the views are well worth it. Spectacular views across Ullswater and of the falls themselves. If you listen you can hear woodpeckers in the woodland.
A well maintained and beautiful National Trust location located next to Ullswater Lake.The walk is quite steep and rocky in places and is not appropriate for those with children in pushchairs. However, the paths are well maintained and the views are stunning.Would really recommend visiting this attraction.
A lovely place with beautiful scenery-if you can make it to the top it's definitely worth the climb! You could probably spend around an hour or more rambling through the woods or just 20 minutes if you just want to see the falls. It's about a 10 minutes climb to the top. Only given it 4 stars as the tearoom and visitor centre were closed so we can't comment on those. Be aware that you will have to pay for parking if your not an nt member!
Excellent paths and lovely views. Good National Trust car park, clean toilets and a good tea room. Walk took about 2 hours and was very enjoyable. Not too strenuous!
well this place is purely breathtaking! There is an onsite natural trust carpark which is £5 to park for a couple of hours then you have 2 options in regards to routes-You can either take a right and take the 'lots of steps route' or take a left and go up the slope/a few steps route.We went for the slope route and the sights you see on the way up are phenominal. This place is somewhere you could spend hours and hours just looking at the stunning views.
