North Yorkshire · 2 places checked
2 places on our list here — walks from the village. Every verdict below was checked by a human — the stamp shows when.
A 1.75-mile there-and-back through the deepest gorge in the south west to the 30-metre White Lady waterfall, an hour of walking with 120 metres of climbing on rocky paths, handrails and some very steep pitches. Start at the waterfall entrance car park at the western end, which is free to National Trust members and part of a paid admission otherwise, and note that in winter only the shorter routes stay open when the river is high. Dogs must be on short leads throughout because the path clings to a wet rock ledge above the water for much of the way, there is nowhere safe for a dog to swim, and a big strong dog on a narrow handrailed section is a genuine risk rather than a nuisance.

ADD A WALKA squat twelfth-century tower that served as the stannary prison, standing in the middle of a Saxon burh on the north-west edge of Dartmoor. Free to enter, unstaffed and listed by English Heritage as dog friendly, with dogs on leads; the village is also the way in to Lydford Gorge.
