We hiked to see Scale force waterfall situated in Cockermouth on the 27th of August. Scale force's name "force" derived from Norse term for waterfall. It's about 170 feet tall (around 51.8 meters) and originate from stream Scale beck. It took us about 2 hours to walk there.
When I was very young I remember walking long and hard path through a forest to see Duninda Waterfall in Sri Lanka. That was in the seventies. Sheer force of the water from Dunhinda was amusingly beautiful. It's about 60 meters high and 10 meters higher than the Scale force. Sri lanka's tallest water fall is Bambarakanda which is 260 meters tall and around 5 times higher than the scale force.
As you can see the walk to see scale force was beautiful because of the surrounding mountains and the lake below in the valley.
In my point of view there is no point of scolding at people to save nature and environment. No point of posting hundreds of facebook posts to stop people and politicians destroying the forests and wild life. You have to show the people how to enjoy the nature. Those people who enjoy the nature will love the nature and would not destroy it.
