Explore dramatic moorland rock formations The natural spectacle of Brimham Rocks, with its giant rock formations, was created by an immense river 100 million years before the first dinosaurs walked the earth, and a visit to this amazing landscape is truly a journey into pre-history. The rocks, sculpted by 320 million years of movement of entire continents as well as hundreds of thousands of years of ice, rain and wind, have taken on weird and wonderful shapes and with a little imagination, they resemble familiar creatures. Visitors are free to explore the site, spotting the Dancing Bear, the Gorilla, the Eagle and the Turtle, whilst the more nimble can crawl through the Smartie Tube and balance on the Rocking Stones. Some of the most iconic rock formations can be viewed only 10 minutes’ walk from the car park, and it takes around four hours to explore all of this fascinating site, with its enduring landscape and carefully managed environment. Brimham Rocks and its heather moorland are both Sites of Special Scientific Interest and are a magnet for geologists, naturalists, climbers and walkers, as well as families who love the freedom to explore this amazing place.

One of the most incredible natural wonders in Yorkshire, Brimham Rocks is a great day out on the cheap. They’re a series of balancing rock formations nestled in some of the most beautiful landscapes of God’s Own County. You can wander across the heather-strewn moorland and through charming woodlands to spot The Dancing Bear, The Eagle and The Gorilla, all formed over thousands of years as water, wind and glaciation eroded the millstone grit. Summerbridge, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG3 4DW.
