Wuthering Heights

Step into the wild, windswept world of Wuthering Heights with a trip to the breathtaking Yorkshire Dales National Park, where the newest film adaptation starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi was brought to life.

Within the National Park, Swaledale’s rugged scenery sets the mood for much of the film. You can follow the moorland path from Surrender Bridge to the ruins of the Old Gang Smelt Mill, where the towering remains form a dramatic backdrop. Venture across Melbecks Moor to Healaugh Crag on the Reeth Estate and you’ll spot the dramatic rock where Cathy waits above the brooding landscape below. With more scenes shot along this route, it’s a filming trail filled with romance, ruin and untamed beauty at every turn.
