About Hardcastle Craggs
Hardcastle Craggs is a National Trust beauty spot of with more than 160 hectares of unspoilt woodland and riverside walking just awaiting for you to come and explore, so get your boots on and your binoculars bagged and go see what seasonal delights you can spot!.
At the area's heart is Gibson Mill, a family oriented visitor centre, telling the history of the valley over the past 200 years using kid friendly interactive displays, dressing up supplies, plus live dancing and themed exhibitions. This is the perfect point at which to start, and get help planning your journey around the crags depending on the mobility of your party and what kind of stuff you'd like to see! Varies seasonally of course so well worth checking in here first every time and find out what's new!
A buggy friendly route or a more adventurous route to the Mill are both available to choose from and there is a self sustained little cafe next to the mill which marks your half way point on this circular riverside adventure, though you're also welcome to picnic (tidily!) too.
