The top of the cove is a large area of limestone pavement. Gordale Scar is a spectacular gorge, complete with waterfalls, cut right into the limestone hillside. The gorge was produced by water from melting glaciers sometime over the last three million years. Gordale Scar is one of the highlights of a visit to Malham. A stream from Malham Tarn disappears into the ground through sink holes in the limestone, and reappears at Airehead Springs.
Malham is a popular village in the Yorkshire Dales on the Pennine Way. Additional Field Parking will be made available at busy times.
Over the last one and a half million years, Malham was probably covered at least three times with huge sheets of ice. As these glaciers ground their way over the landscape they plucked rock from the face of the Cove and carried it away. The car park is a designated Dark Sky Discovery site, so why not visit after dark to experience the dark skies overhead.
