River Twiss, Yorkshire Dales

---

The source of the river is Kingsdale Beck which rises at Kingsdale Head at the confluence of Back Gill and Long Gill in the Yorkshire Dales. Beneath Keld Head, it changes its name to the River Twiss. It has two notable waterfalls, Thornton Force and Pecca Falls (seen in the previous images) and its course follows part of the Ingleton Waterfalls Walk. It then flows through Swilla Glen to Thornton in Lonsdale and down to Ingleton, where it meets the River Doe to form the River Greta. To the north the limestone slopes of Keld Head Scars rise to the summit of Gragareth. This image was taken on a footbridge over the river just before the trail climbs quite steeply up hill onto a ridge across the moors.
