Walking Holidays in the Yorkshire Dales
If you’re coming to Riverside for walking then you won’t be disappointed. There’s an abundance of walks to suite all levels of fitness and difficulty.
Visitors have been coming to the area for walking holidays for around 150 years to try out such classics as the Waterfalls Walk at Ingleton, and the Yorkshire 3 Peaks of Ingleborough, Whernside. This classic 25 mile challenge is taken up by hundred of keen walkers every year. Another classic is the tour of Malham Cove and Gordale Scar. With its spectacular limestone cliffs.
Bentham itself has some lovely walks, ranging from a 2 mile stroll along the river to a 10 mile hike in the surrounding countryside.

What people think of Riverside Caravan Park!
Reviews from UKcampsite.co.uk
"WOW! what a site A+++++ The best site we have been on in ages, lovely big site not at all cramped, power, water and satelite TV points next to the caravan, big childrens play area and games room inside, dog friendly, the best bit of all for me though is the toilets/shower unbeleivably clean, heated floors, automatic showers which although a little short for me at 4 mins always guaranteed you hot water, which is more important than a long cold shower!
Plenty of nearby attractions lakes approx 1 hour away, the owners have spent a lot of time on this site and you can tell, we will definitely be calling back to Riverside!"
"What a fantastic place, just had 2 nights, if I said a quiet & tranquil setting, it would be an understatement, but that is not meaning children would be out of place, far from it.
Riverside has a great indoor games room & an outdoor play area which is suitable for children of all ages. As for the facilities, second too none, a credit to all concerned.
The village of High Bentham or Low Bentham are within a short walk of the park. Would recommend Riverside to all tourers & camper vans"
