Wessenden Head Reservoir
@theitinerarygal
The waterfall isn't far from Wessenden Reservoir, and it can be spotted from the footpath. You'll have to descend down if you want a close up, and it can be quite muddy and slippery so it's up to you whether to see it properly or not!
Wessenden Head can be reached by a faint path, but is definitely worth the visit if you're in the area! The waterfall is most impressive after heavy rainfall, with the views of water cascading down and cutting through the hillside.

Crowden Brook
@theitinerarygal
is a gorgeous gem located on one of the less popular routes up to Kinder Scout plateau. The route you'll need to take is the Crowden Clough (many guides on how to hike this can be found online) which can be quite tricky, but it's worth the challenge to see this hidden waterfall.
The waterfall is at the start of the Crowden Clough access in which the walk will take you alongside the brook. It's easy to reach if you're used to this kind of hiking!

Jacob's Ladder
@theitinerarygal
The Jacob's Ladder hike is moderate to difficult, so if you're a first timer you might want to try a different route for your first hike. Just before the climb you'll be greeted by this little waterfall to boost your morale!
Things to know before visiting Jacob's Ladder Waterfall
Jacob's Ladder Waterfall is dog friendly.
The hike overall can be pretty challenging so please do wear appropriate footwear.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The Itinerary Gal
Hi I'm Emma from the UK and I have been fortunate enough to have been traveling since my 20s in the UK and abroad. I started the Destination bible because I wanted to turn my passion of travelling into a business so I became an Independent travel advisor. I also have a love for fitness and the outdoors.
I have spent so much time planning my adventures that I wanted to take the stress and hassle out of planning the perfect escape for others.
I offer 1:1 calls and custom itineraries for all tastes and budgets.
I also accept requests for package holidays/cheap flight deals/ UK staycations/ Spa and theatre breaks/ cruises and Disneyland packages and I will source the best deals and tell you where to book them.
Don't worry if you have a fur baby, I often take my ginger Pomeranian Todd on my adventure's too so I can recommend some great dog friendly places.
I regularly check all the best package deals from the UK so reach out if you want some recommendations on where is cheap and trending right now, as we all love a great deal right?
I hope my guides will inspire you to get out more and explore the world 🌎no matter what your budget or location.
I have created guides on my personal experiences and on places that I know you will enjoy exploring. Hopefully as much as I have. I only recommend places to stay based on personal experience.
Looking for some inspiration?
