We explored Dales Gorge on the first day which was a beautiful walk, we also found one of the best natural swimming pools we've seen -Fern pool.
we then explored the next adventurous gorge, Weano Gorge to Handrail pool. This one started off with a deeper section of water you could either wade through and get wet to your chest, or wade across part of the way at knee height and then do some scaling along a very narrow rock wall. We all went for the last option except for Harry who had remembered that we still had boogey boards on the car roof and thought it would be a good idea to paddle across.
We then walked a bit furteh on rock scrambling, crossing streams on stepping stones before you come to a tricky narrow chasm you have to climb through and you get to a handrail which you climb down to get to the magnificent swimming pool that awaits you. That wasnt quite enough excitement for the kids so they decided to climb some of the rock walls that were surrounding us.
We all finished the day with that exhausted feeling of contentment you get after having a physically demanding but fun day.
