Becky Falls
About
Becky Falls, located in the heart of Dartmoor National Park near Manaton, is a beloved family‑friendly attraction that offers more than just a cascading waterfall. The 70‑foot waterfall, surrounded by boulder‑strewn valleys, sits within expansive ancient oak woodland that hosts a rich diversity of wildlife, including rare species protected as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Visitors can stroll along three colour‑coded walking trails – Blue (gentle, family‑friendly), Red (main waterfall) and Purple (adventure, higher difficulty). The park’s keeper‑talk sessions run hourly between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., providing engaging insights into local fauna such as goats, meerkats, pigs and parrots. A cosy Woodland Café, gift shop, and free parking complete the experience. Dogs on leads are welcome throughout, making Becky Falls a pet‑friendly destination. Admission is paid, with single‑visit and season tickets available, and booking online is strongly advised during peak periods.
