Wonderful place for the family, on site amenities. Food, coffee and toilets all on site. Car park £6 -£9 plenty of staff and friendly people. Get up close with the amazing rock formations from time passed. Climb, but be careful these’s are weathered slippy rocks at times. A great walk out in a rural setting. Highly recommend a visit.

A family friendly place. I'd suggest not to take stroller/pram if you have a baby, instead use carrier to carry as pavement rocks are uneven for stroller. There's a coffee and sandwich shop as well. No admission fee, but you need to pay for parking. You'll enjoy it for sure. Recommend.

A good morning, afternoon or day out, depending on how much walking and exploring you want to do. After walking through much of the area there is a nice little refreshments kiosk, where you can get a drink, snack, hot sandwich, cold sandwich or treats. Kids will enjoy it far more than they might think ("just a load of rocks???"). Great for photos.

We love brimham rocks. We spoke to staff about potentially having our wedding photos taken there and they were very helpful. If you want to do this you do have to have permission and pay a fee, you can’t just turn up. We went up for a picnic and a good walk on one of the hottest days in the summer. We used our National trust membership to park. The pathways are well maintained and there’s a great selection of snack and ice creams at the kiosk (also a tap to fill water bottles). I would remind anyone visiting to take your litter home with you! We picked up several pieces on the top of rocks or stuffed down the side of plants. It’s a beautiful place in the countryside there are bins up by the kiosk or just take your litter home. It’s great place to take kids to run around and climb. We love it.

Was fortunate enough to visit this Country Park which is run by the National Trust - spent the morning exploring not only the rock formations but also the moss gardens.
I visited the park on a Thursday and it wasn't too busy, but left once a coach full of tourists arrived from across the pond.
I think that you can spend an entire day at the park only to return the next day and see something new.
Will I visit again? Yes. Can I recommend? Yes.

Great place to visit if you want a walk and scramble up rocks. The rock formations look amazing. We've visited before to have a climb, however this time we parked here to walk part of the Yorkshire Heritage Way long distance walk and as such needed to pay for parking for one car for the full day, which was quite expensive at £9. After walking from Thruscross Reservoir to Brimham Rocks I didn't really have to much energy to clamber on the rocks but did visit the trig point behind the visitor centre!

A fantastic piece of geography in a stunning part of the country. The scenery is incredible and the rock formations are fascinating. It really is impressive how they stand the way they are. There is even a nice cafe at the top with a range of drinks and snacks - even ice cream.

Pretty standard National Trust Quality Attraction. Pretty popular but not overly busy. Well laid out car parks usual tea room with usual prices.

Our adventurous 5year old loved it and wants to go back tomorrow. Usual Free parking if you're a NT member.
