Gordale Scar Lower Waterfall

Gordale Scar Lower Waterfall is in The Yorkshire Dales National Park in England.

The lower waterfall at Gordale Scar is the barrier for people who turn back down the path from the scar, and those who climb and continue on. The rocks are slippy and treacherous in bad weather but it is not too bad a climb for the able bodied. Once past the waterfall there is a rocky path - sometimes a bit of a scramble.
