Just downstream from Cow Green Reservoir's dam, the River Tees plunges over Cauldron Snout, a dramatic cascade on the Whin Sill (a hard dolerite rock formation). It's often described as England's longest waterfall at around 180-200 meters (200 yards) long, though more of a prolonged cataract or series of rocky steps than a single drop, with a total vertical fall of about 60 meters (200 feet). This makes it impressive in scale within the rugged Pennine landscape.The waterfall predates the reservoir (which was built upstream in the late 1960s-early 1970s), but the dam now influences its flow. It's a highlight on the Pennine Way long-distance trail, accessible via a roughly 3 km walk from the Cow Green car park. The name evokes the foaming, cauldron-like pool at its base.
Cauldron Snout is in a remote, beautiful part of the North Pennines—perfect for hiking, though prepare for exposed moorland conditions!
