About Richmond Falls
Richmond Falls are a series of waterfalls along the River Swale, near the town centre of Richmond, which lies just outside the Yorkshire Dales National Park in North Yorkshire. Their size can be easily affected by heavy rain and flooding, making for dramatic viewing.
The falls are located in a limestone gorge particularly attractive in autumn when trees change colour. The shores are beachy and wooded and the pools formed by the falls are popular among wild swimmers. Best to be avoided during summer weekends and bank holidays when the falls become a crowded party location.
