The Lightwater Valley Park in Ripon

The Eagles Claw!

The easter break this summer was blessed with some great weather. We decided to make the best of this holidays with a day trip to the Lightwater valley park in Ripon, North Yorkshire. The adjoining picture is for what looks like (and is) a mind-blowing ride - the Eagles Claw.

If you are in or around North Yorkhire in the UK. And are looking for a good day out, this would be a great option. If you have kids in the group, then this would be THE option.

And yes, the tickets are a bit steep (around £15 at the time of writing). Try looking around the internet for better deals. For us, lastminute.com turned up with £9.50. Not bad.
