In a landscape carved out in the last Ice Age over 12,000 years ago, the Becky Falls waterfall sits at the heart of Dartmoor Park in a stunning boulder strewn valley.
The waterfall itself is 70ft high and over 35ft wide in parts where the Becka Brook runs between the huge granite boulders and onward down the Bovey valley.
Although the main falls are spectacular there are many smaller falls along the length of the brook for you to enjoy. The waterfall is entirely natural and is especially stunning after recent rain fall.
Becky Falls contains important habitats such as it’s waterways and woodland. Becky Falls are proud to have both Ancient Woodland and Ancient Trees. Becky Falls as an SSSI has been declared to have high conservation value, and this needs to be protected. Hence dogs must be on leads and ask visitors to stay on the designated paths.
There are also lots of Animals on site, from goats and ponies to snakes, parrots and invertebrates. There is a licensed cafe serving a selection of burgers, panini’s and pasties. Including gluten free and vegan options.
There is also a lovely gift shop and toilet facilities.
Dog friendly
There may be extra requirements to keep dogs on short leads or only allowed within certain areas. Please check with the location before travelling.
