Set on the eastern flanks of the Pennines, in the heart of Yorkshire, the Nidderdale AONB is a land of wild moorland, secluded dales, spectacular wildlife and cultural heritage. Go back 320 million years to appreciate the bizarre Brimham Rocks.
Then underground into the Stumps Cross Caverns with their colourful stalactite and stalagmite formations before plenty of fresh air at Yorke’s Folly, with its amazing views over Pateley Bridge and Lower Nidderdale. More fine views at Coldstones Cut and ‘The Ruin’ at Hackfall.
The jewel in Nidderdale’s cultural crown is the Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal world heritage site of Cistercian abbey, Georgian water garden and medieval deer park.
The area has always been in birdwatchers’ sights and the exciting Studfold Discovery Trail opens the youngsters’ eyes to nature and the countryside.
