This summer, High Force Waterfall is open until 8PM daily, giving you a rare chance to witness this iconic natural landmark in the softer, more atmospheric light of the evening.
To celebrate, we’re running a Photography Competition, running now until Sunday 7th September 2025. Whether you’re capturing the waterfall in glowing evening tones, soft light filtering through the trees, or dramatic shadows along the trail, we want to see your most inspiring photos.
