One of the Best Places To Visits in Malham Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Love the space and peace. Went on school holidays but not many people about. Parked on top and walked anti clockwise. Including the boardwalk and bird hide, it took around two hours. Start your Malham Cove at the Tarn, it’s tranquil sublime moorland landscape We walked all the way round, an easy pleasent walk. You can escape the crowds, plenty of places to park, lovely countryside. The Cove itself is a quite dramatic curving cliff with a little beck flowing out at the base. There is quite a good to it although you have to on the road for a short distance, we came back that way, but took the to the right side of the beck to get up there. Once there there is a little bridge to cross to the other side or when very near to the cliff the water runs under the stones. If you want to go to the top, there are steps and a path/track going up to it, we didn't as Tina has hip pain. On the tourists to the left going up, there are often cattle which are very used to people and most of the time don't pay any attention, though they sometimes show an interest in dogs. Parking on the road (if you can find a space) is free although they have a QR code and suggested donation of £5, not sure how many people would pay. The Visitor Centre is like all others in 2025 £3.80 for 2 hours (3 hours for blue badge) and £6.00 over 2 hours, which is fine if you are earning a living, but a lot of money if you are on a pension like us. Anyway we did find a space on the road before the Visitor Centre so all was good for us. Worth a visit definitely, though in season there are lots of tourists as you would expect, including us on this occasion. Fantastic place for a great country side walk. Brilliant scenery. you can park up and compleatly around the Tarn Beautiful part of the Yorkshire dales I like to come here in my spare time and now I get to work here aswel highly recommended please don't leave your rubbish after visiting Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place. So quiet that it’s beyond belief. It was built as a reservoir. It is quite big however very shallow. Around the lake the temperature drops by few degrees because of the wind and open space. Make sure you have extra layer of clothing with you, especially out of the summer months. Loads of boulders to sit on around. If you don’t fancy walking from Malham National Park Centre, there’s a car park nearby. Highly recommended place to Visit if you want a bit of silence and peace. Great outdoors spectacular view over the lake, easy going on feet good for wheelchairs, couple of walks you can do. Go with food and drink no facilities looks like they are doing tarn house up so may be some in the near future, we'll worth a visit. Lovely beautiful tarn. A lot quieter than the crowds you can get at Malham cove in good weather. And, you can to the cove in about 30 mins if you still want to see it. Beautiful area to go for a and explore. Lots of birds to see. A great place to walk. There is a small car park serving both the tarn and the cove which is free. A small stretch of the is part of the Pennine Way. A toilet is available at the Field Centre, which also has a small information room on the fauna and flora that can be seen. At the far end of the is a circular board walk. Great place with fantastic walks and amazing scenery, Beautiful expanse of water "on top of the World Ma!" On a beautiful summer's day listening to only the birdsong is exquisite. Lovely walks. Avoid going when the wind chill factor is minus seven. Otherwise great views.
