Great place to visit with family, only a easy 15 min walk from the car park to the waterfall, different trails, but all lead to the same place. There's plenty of parking space, but it's £6 for 2 hours. There is a coffee shop just off the car park, which is worth a visit.

Beautiful walk with various trail options. Suitable for kids but sensible footwear needed.
Car park was full fairly early and by 1pm the cafe didn't have much food left.

Lovely walk, lots of steps. We got here 9.30 and was easy to park. At 11.30 people were struggling to get a space. Lots of beautiful views to see.

A beautiful place to visit. There are pathways to walk up the fell and around the water fall. But can be steep at times. We visited on a rainy day so the water fall was in full force. There are car parks around the area, we didn't have much change and the phone signal wasn't very good to pay by phone. So definitely take some change. I think £8.50 was the most you had to pay for the longest time to park.

Just a short hike from the Park Brow parking lot. There are a lot of steps if you decide to go down closer to the falls, but it was not as bad as it looks! Another beautiful day in the UK!

Absolutely beautiful place. The waterfalls is breathtaking, surrounded by nature. Please have non slippery shoes before you travel. I wouldn’t recommend taking kids under 5Yrs if you going to walk around the waterfall, it’s quite dangerous . Car Park few minutes away £5 for 2 hours not bad. Best to go in the summer.

A must visit place. Waterfall and the walk around is amazing.

Adequate parking nearby and 10 min walk from there to waterfalls and then you can walk around for hours.

Such a lovely walk. We saw the Airs Force waterfall and some others. We also started a hike to get a nice view of Ullswater but came back down because it was raining quite hard. We got the train to Penrith and the Bus down to Aira Force. We also used the tea room and sampled the veg soup, sausage rolls and hot drinks. The area is lovely for a walk and a hike. Lots of routes around the forest.

Excellent waterfall. 5 min walk from the car park. Car park charges are around 5£ per 2 hours. You can walk all the way down to the waterfall and enjoy the beauty from quite close. There are different trails which you can take from there. You can walk by the stream enjoying the scenery..

Beautiful walk which takes around 50 minutes. The paths are well defined and easy to follow. The track is of moderate difficulty with inclines and lots of steps in one place but would be perfect for families or dog walkers

Fantastic place. It's nice to walk to the upper part of it called Aira High Force. Not difficult but rewarding. Walking from the parking lot is very easy and pleasant.

Nice place to explore, especially with the rain we’ve had making the waterfall powerful.
Not difficult terrain to hike. Some steps with railings. Car park is close by and although it’s paid it supports National Trust. Coffee shop and toilets on site.

Beautiful.
A beautiful waterfall set in beautiful scenery with a beautiful lake nearby. The beck was in spate when we visited, and the deep roar of the waterfall was audible some distance away. We visited on a sunny morning where the spray formed 2 beautiful rainbows by the base.
Aira Force is stunning from any angle, including from the upper bridge looking directly down the 20-m drop. No wonder this waterfall is praised more than any other in the Lake District, and poems praise it so much.
We visited on our bikes so had no problem with parking

It is one of the nicest places I have visited in the area so beautiful and well hidden away from the road. It's also national trust parking for free if you're a member. It's also relatively easy to get to if you're not the healthiest. Only con is there can be a lot of tourist traffic there as I found out the hard way, but all in all, a great morning visit. Great birthday trip aswell

Good car park excellent tea room try the sausage rolls they are great. It's a bit of a hike up to the falls themselves but worth the trek.

Great walk. Much work done to some of the path since I was last there. Fresh, beautiful place to be and the noise of the water is relaxing.

Must see if you’re in the lakes area. Main car park charge £6 for 2 hrs but free if you’re national trust member. The lower cascade is more majestic I though the higher cascade. We went in mid April. Moderate crowds. But get there by 1030 or 11 before the car park gets filled and no more space! Great walk , takes around 1 and half hour Clean toilets for free! Surprisingly they’ve a Dyson hand drier and a thoughtful stool for children to get on to the men’s urinals and sink!
