High Force Waterfall

We stayed overnight in our motorhome at this venue and then did the walk as soon as it opened in the morning (10:00). It was challenging for me, but more because I have a phobia of nettles than because of wheelchair access. I had checked out the quality of the path before deciding to visit and had come to the conclusion that, being quite a short walk and a firm surface, I would be able to manage. I used my normal wheelchair with Freewheel.

There's a woodland walk from the car park (charge payable) down to the viewpoint. Crossing the road from the car park requires a bit of help as there's no dropped kerb on the far side and no crossing (so care needed spotting cars, which travel quite fast on this section of road). There's a bit of a bump in the first bit of path, but after that it's a gentle trundle on firm paths more or less all the way down - only the very last short section is inaccessible (steps). Spectacular waterfall. Charges apply - buy tickets in ticket office in car park.
