Looking for more fabulous British landscapes? Check out our guides to mountains<\/a>, rivers<\/a> and forests<\/a>.<\/p>\n Probably the most popular waterfall in the Lake District, Aira Force is part of a circular National Trust trail. You can walk over a bridge that arches over the top of the falls for a stunning photo opportunity.<\/p>\n High Force is an easily accessible and enchanting waterfall not far from Raby Castle. Known as England\u2019s largest waterfall, the scene makes for pleasant viewing, especially with the nearby picnic area and seasonal gift shop.<\/p>\n Gaping Gill is spectacular not just because it\u2019s the highest unbroken waterfall in England, but also because it plunges into a deep pothole. Twice a year, the Bradford and Craven Pothole Club<\/a> allow tourists to venture down into the cavern.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div> The magnificent An Steall (also known as Steall Falls or The White Spout) is Britain\u2019s second highest waterfall. It plummets 120m from the slopes of An Gearanach into the River Nevis and is spectacular in its scale and force.<\/p>\n A two-mile walk climbs on a rocky, rollercoaster path through Glen Nevis to reach the epic Steall Falls. The combination of tumbling river water, soaring mountain views and hillside woodland makes this a true microcosm of the Scottish Highlands.<\/p>\n An abundance of falls, chutes and cataracts together make Upper Wensleydale the epitome of Yorkshire\u2019s beguiling waterfall country. And at its heart is delightful Hawes, a miniature town, major market centre and locus for countless rambles to magical falls amid the cocooning hills \u2013 including\u00a0Aysgill Force and Hardraw Force.<\/p>\n Spray from Pistyll Rhaeadr nurtures mosses and ferns. Around them, protected from sheep in a walled enclosure, beeches, birches, oaks<\/a> and pines thrive. From a distance, the wooded gorge and falls resemble an almost Tyrolean scene, which is usually a fecund refuge for squirrels, woodpeckers<\/a> and finches<\/a> sheltering from the Berwyns\u2019 icy blasts.<\/p>\n Plunging 20m into the surprising seclusion of a deep gorge in Eskdale, Stanley Ghyll Force feels miles from the tourist trappings and rambling hikers found in much of the Lake District.<\/p>\n The landscape and flora of the woodland makes this place feel typically English yet somehow tropical at the same time, adding to the enchantment of the gorge, of which the waterfall is the main attraction.<\/p>\n![\"""\"](\""https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/22\/2020\/03\/Jesmond-Dene-f02ba29-scaled.jpg?quality=90&resize=619%2C413"\" "\\"\"\"\\"\/")
