Gaddings Dam is a popular spot for wild swimming (Image: YorkshireLive) There's a certain exhilaration that comes with taking a dip in the sea or lake, especially when it involves a challenging trek to find the perfect spot, Andrew Robinson from YorkshireLive said. He added: "It feels like a much-needed mini adventure." Gaddings Dam, often dubbed as "England's highest beach ", tends to create a sense of isolation and remoteness, particularly for Andrew after he spent an hour-long drive from Huddersfield to this moorland beauty.
Once parked, a steep 15-minute ascent up a rough and uneven makeshift path heightened his sensation of uncovering a hidden sanctuary. "On my visit last Sunday afternoon, I was greeted by the sight of around 50 people, including families with young children, enjoying the small sandy beach at one corner of the dam," said Andrew. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
