Description
Waterfall and series of pools connecting to Rydal Water, with extremely beautiful views of the mountains and gorgeous clear water. The main pool is deep enough for a good circular swim, with the small ones further down being more plunge pools. They’re all fairly easy to access once you’ve done the walk — the main area even has a “natural slide” into it…at your own risk. There was a decent amount of people there when we visited, but this was on a bank holiday in summer.
Getting There
You can park at Rydal Mount and Gardens then walk up from there — it took us about an hour. Google maps reckon 28 minutes from Rydal Hall… perhaps an easier route!
Accessibility
You need to walk around a mile to get to the water. The water itself is easily accessed and slopes nicely.
