A very steep and extremely slippery multi pitch canyon featuring the highest waterfall in England

Approach by Car: Free parking in the lay-by near The Temperance Inn. Approach by foot:Cross the bridge found below the lay by and follow the obvious, but steep path, to the top of The Calf plateau. The beck is forked near the top - ignore and cross the first stream (on the trail), then begin your descent when the trail meets the next one.

Enter the canyon after crossing the first stream, (the main footpath begins to follow the river after this) Canyon descent: A Steep slippery canyon, some large abseils make the trip one of the lake district classics This canyon contains sharp rock be aware! Very slippery inside the canyon. Care should be taken with the moss and vegetation inside the canyon - quite fragile. Received anchor updates in 2020

Shortly after A8 a small animal track is visible on TL, follow back to the main track Escapes: Possible throughout the canyon, the majority of the time on the TL (preferred side)
