Overview

Welcome to your self-guided driving tour of the Yorkshire Dales, a region known for its stunning landscapes, fascinating history, and charming local culture. We will explore a numbers of places throughout the tour, like Bolton Castle, a real medieval fortress that feels like stepping back in time. Next, we head to Aysgarth Falls, a series of gentle, cascading waterfalls surrounded by peaceful trails. A short journey ahead brings you to Hawes, a delightful market town that is famous for its Wensleydale cheese. From there, make your way to Hardraw Force, the tallest single-drop waterfall in England. Tucked away in a wooded area, this spot feels like a hidden gem. Your next stop is Coldstones Cut, a unique viewpoint that combines sculpture with stunning views. Finally, end your tour at Brimham Rocks, where you’ll find incredible rock formations that almost seem otherworldly.
