Circular Walk from West Witton to Penhill Beacon and Trig Point in Wensleydale

Aysgarth Falls in the glorious Yorkshire Dales National Park
I can’t believe I’ve been writing a blog for so long and haven’t written about Aysgarth Falls. There might have been mention within walks on here but not specifically about the falls.
