Dob Gill Car Park

"Another option for waterfall hikers in the north Lakes is Dob Gill Waterfall. This Lake District waterfall takes its name from the stream that flows freely from Harrop Tarn before cascading down a wide rocky ravine, giving rise to a series of waterfalls and plunge pools. Where is Dob Gill Waterfall? Dog Gill Waterfall can be found tucked away within a secluded woodland area in the heart of the Lake District National Park. This enchanting waterfall tumbles from Harrop Tarn into the lesser-known Thirlmere Reservoir, just west of Helvellyn. Despite their secluded location, the falls are easily accessible. Ee sure not to forget your camera! What could be better than capturing nature’s force in places few people have visited before? Dob Gill Waterfall Park in Steel End Car Park, just outside Wythburn off the A591, passing the eastern shore of Thirlmere. From here, follow the signposted walk to Harrop Tarn through steep woodland. The secret falls are hidden about a mile into the trail. You’ll catch a glimpse of the falls through the trees as you ascend, adding to the excitement! The walk is not too challenging, and little ones are sure to enjoy the sights just as much as keen photographers! To extend your walk, head out of the woodland and onto the fells to reach Blea Tarn, located a mile and a half away."
