    There were 2 waterfalls at this location that are pretty much next to each other. The route to the waterfalls is not sign posted so I found it difficult to locate as I had young children with me. I had to cross the stream 3 times using stepping stones. When I eventually reached the waterfalls it was well worth it. It's a shame that it does not have sign posts.

    Have visited on more than one occasion. Has so much atmosphere what ever season you visit. Relatively easy walk in summer but beware of the terrain in winter as can get very wet and slippery. Waterfalls are delightful 💙

    Great place for a day out, after some sunny days. Good hiking place, with rocks, trees, small waterfalls. Nearby, there are several natural and historic wonders to look for to complete your day.

    Awesome hiking route all the way up to Rivington Pike. The views are mesmerising. We went there with 2 teens and a 3 years old.

    Great place for a forest walk with views of the stream and small waterfalls. Not busy at all as it's just a local forest. You can park in the street nearby. Not a big or organised place but well worth visiting if you fancy a little time in the forest without tourists. We took the paths along the stream and then up the hills. Spend about an hour. There might be more paths leading to nearby hills but we didn't explore further. Some tourist signage would be useful.

    Gorgeous place, very quiet compare to Rivington Pike nearby, maybe because the path we used was well hidden:) Really worth visiting! Waterfall wasn't big as I presume there was not much rain in the area recently. Great walk to the waterfall, very picturesque.

    One of my favourite places to visit. Absolutely stunning scenery, probably the best way to walk to Rivington pike in my opinion!

    Great little place away from the popular photography spots, there are also number of other waterfalls within the same woodland. Terrain will a require decent boots.

    Amazing hidden gem,must visit. Good sturdy footwear will be needed as there is fair bit of walking through water and the rocks are quite slippery. Went with 9yo turned into a great adventure, polished day off with delicious ice cream from Fredericks few minutes drive from Tigers Clough

    Quick trip out as it's been raining a lot which helps with the wow factor of this place. I've been before but my daughter hasn't so rather than have another day stuck in because of the weather we headed out. We took the treacherous route avoiding the proper paths and had a scramble on the ledge walk bit. Water was cascading down and it was so loud. Very enjoyable trip.

    There's a nice stream with some small waterfalls here which you can access for a dip, but be careful the rocks are very slippery. All in all a nice nature walk area.

    Beautiful uphill walk to Rivington Pike. This area is fantastic for walks and lots of stop offs for lunch or a nice bru. Lots to explore and different routes too. Defo worth a visit.

    Stunning Forrest area with stream and waterfalls! Very quiet and tranquil! A bit muddy in parts but still a world away from the norm! We parked in Rivington Reservoir car park and walked through this area, up to Rivington Pike and back round through the gardens!

    Definitely not worth a long journey to visit, very small area. Not like the pictures at all. Lots of litter around, very clearly just used as a dumping ground for the surrounding housing estate.

  • 5/5 Emu C. 8 months ago on Google
    Well recommended, obviously more of a locals spot as we seen dog walkers and kids with bikes although the trails here are a lot harder to get around! Several waterfalls and a tyre swing which was so fun!

    Went on a snowy day, and it was still pretty wonderful.
