Malham

The surrounding countryside is well known for its limestone pavements and other examples of limestone scenery.

The village hosts an annual agricultural and horticultural show on the Saturday before the August Bank Holiday. This is known as the Malham Show and know has competitions for everything from lego models to fell-running. Another major annual event is the Malham Safari, where the villagers and particularly the local school build sculptures around the village. This event attracts many tourists and stalls are put up on the green.

Malham is a popular village in the Yorkshire Dales. The main attractions are the stunning scenery of Malham Cove and Gordale Scar - probably the two most impressive sights in the whole of the Yorkshire Dales - within easy walking distance of the village as is Janet's Foss Waterfall.
