Overview

Join us on this classic Teesdale walk from Langdon Beck along the river valley to the famous Cauldron Snout waterfall.  The walking is mostly easy on well-defined paths and includes sections of the Pennine Way.  There are, however, two stretches that require good balance and flexibility: a short section of the Pennine Way that crosses four boulder fields along the river bank at Falcon Clints, and a steep, short, rocky climb to the right of the waterfall itself.

We plan to have refreshments at the Langdon Beck Hotel after the walk.
