Hawes


Hawes, known as the capital of Upper Wensleydale, is a busy market town. Here you can visit the Dales Countryside Museum, as well as the famous
Wensleydale Creamery.

The hamlet of Hardraw is a level, 1½ mile walk (or take the Little White Bus) from Hawes where, behind the Green Dragon Inn, you can access the steep, wooded gorge that contains Hardraw Force, England’s highest single drop waterfall.

On Monday to Saturday Little White Bus provides a minibus link between Garsdale Station, Hardraw, Hawes and Gayle, and Wensleydale Voyager service 156 up Wensleydale to Hawes from Leyburn. There is also a pre-bookable service to visit the Red Squirrel Trail in nearby Snaizeholme.

Please note - the minibus link between Garsdale Station, Hardraw, Hawes and Gayle no longer runs on Sundays during the winter months.

Hawes is a hub for DalesBus services on Summer Sundays, with the following buses all running to/from Hawes:
  • Northern DalesBus 830: Preston - Lancaster - Ingleton - Ribblehead Station - Hawes - Buttertubs Pass - Muker - Reeth - Richmond
