Cotter Force — photo spot in A684, Hawes DL8 3LR, UK
Cotter Force
Cotter Force is a compact, tiered waterfall set in mossy, tree-framed woodland off the A684 near Hawes. Ideal for intimate waterscape and landscape shots—long exposures smooth the cascades, while autumn and after-rain visits bring saturated greens and contrast. Accessible via a short, uneven footpath from a small roadside layby; no fee. Best at sunrise or late afternoon for soft side light and fewer visitors. Weekdays after rain offer peak flow; watch for slippery rocks and midges in summer.
