Why visit the Yorkshire Dales?

Spectacular landscapes

A school geography trip to the Yorkshire Dales is a wonderful option for groups keen to stay in the UK and explore some of the incredible landscapes we have here in the British Isles.

The Yorkshire Dales is an upland area of the Pennines and boasts some wonderful geographic features, from its limestone cave systems to its heather moorland.

If you’re looking for a geography school trip within the UK that will allow your students to explore a range of landscapes affected by hydrology, the Yorkshire Dales could be the destination for you.

Your students will love the atmospheric landscape of the Yorkshire Dales, with its mysterious caves and caverns, and dramatic waterfalls. And they’ll learn more about the wildlife and ecosystems that depend on this landscape.

They’ll learn more about geological timescales, geomorphic processes and how the UK’s physical and human geography is changing.

Develop fieldwork skills

Your students will have the opportunity to develop their fieldwork skills in exploring the area.

They’ll also have the chance to enjoy a number of guided walks through the landscape, including a cave walk where they will see underground streams and waterfalls, caverns covered in stalactites and even prehistoric mud pools!

If you’re looking for a geography school trip to inspire your young geographers and show them how exciting your subject is, then a school trip to the Yorkshire Dales is a fantastic choice!

Discover coastal landscapes

On your geography school trip to the Yorkshire Dales, your students will also have the opportunity to explore coastal landscapes.

The Arnside and Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has a spectacular coastline on Morecambe Bay, the largest intertidal area in the UK.

Morecambe Bay is one of just a few locations in the world where it’s possible to see a tidal bore. This is a type of tidal wave caused by the surge of the incoming tide meeting resistance from the sands and channels of the bay and can be quite spectacular!
