This superb village near Skipton lies in the midst
of some of North Yorkshire’s most rugged scenery,
the result of an Ice Age glacier interacting with
natural limestone.
Here are the impressive cliffs of Malham Cove - a
vast limestone amphitheatre - and a huge limestone
‘pavement’ caused by the eroding action of acid
rain.
Nearby Malham Moor and the nature reserve of
Malham Tarn are unmissable natural wonders while
the twisted gorge of Gordale Scar and the pretty
waterfall of Janet’s Foss must not be overlooked.
