Gordale Scar Campsite

Gordale Scar Campsite sits alongside Gordale Beck in Malhamdale, North Yorkshire, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

The campsite occupies the field through which walkers pass on their way to the dramatic limestone gorge of Gordale Scar, placing it in an exceptional natural setting just moments from one of the region's most celebrated geological features.

The site serves as a practical base for exploring the surrounding area, with the path to Gordale Scar continuing directly from the campsite along the beck.

Nearby attractions include Janet's Foss waterfall and Malham Cove, making it a popular starting point for circular walks. Pets are welcome, and the site is generally considered suitable for older children.
