Why This River is So Mysterious (and Deadly)

Certainly one of our TOP 5 THINGS TO DO IN THE YORKSHIRE DALES. The Strid, Bolton Abbey Estate, The worlds most dangerous river stretch. The River Warfe in the Yorkshire Dale's is home to THE STRID believed to be the most dangerous stretch in the world. This could be arguably true. The River Warfe, Bolton Abbey, and The Strid is however very very beautiful. This very short video pays tribute to the powerful yet stunning Strid. #yorkshire #hiking #theyorkshiredales #thestrid #boltonabbey #dangerous #

When we were kids in the 80's we used to ride our bmx's from skipton to Bolton Abbey to swim in the river and jump the strid😮. We knew it's was dangerous but we thought it was shallow. Luckily no one fell in. Been back may times with my wife and kids for some beautiful walks.

I was there yesterday. Beautiful place. By the way, what is that AI abomination of a thumbnail. Lol

@thewhofan8020 😄 Yes, awesome location, and awful Vidiq thumbnail suggestion. I've since stopped using their "services" I will return the original thumbnail when I'm not so busy.
