Waterfall on the River Esk

Waterfall on the River Esk is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.

The River Esk, a tributary of the River Dee in Cumbria, flows through a rugged upland landscape, and its waterfall is characterized by a dramatic drop over dark, basalt rock formations. The waterfall is worth seeing for its striking contrast of white water against the surrounding moorland and its relatively remote, unspoiled setting.
