St Nectan's Glen, Woodland valley near Tintagel, England.
The valley extends for one mile along the Trevillet River, featuring a 60-foot waterfall that flows through an opening in the rocks.
The site received its designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1985 to protect the diverse wildlife habitat within the area.
Visitors participate in traditional practices by placing ribbons, crystals, photographs, and creating small rock formations called fairy stacks near the waterfall.
The entrance fee to access the waterfall costs 9 pounds for adults and 5 pounds for children between 5 and 15 years old.
The waterfall, known as Saint Nectan's Kieve, plunges through a natural stone arch into a deep rock basin before continuing its course downstream.
