    WC
    Accessible WC at Aira Force car park.

    Pathways and open space
    The walk up to Aira Force generally follows an easy route with surfaced paths and safety railings in places. However, please note that some of the paths in this area are steep, rocky and narrow in places and can get muddy after rain. Some steep and long flights of steps, particularly near the waterfall itself.

    All-ability trails
    There are accessible paths to Victorian Glade and Aira Green on the shore of Ullswater, but not to the waterfall. The lakeshore footpath at Brotherswater has recently been made more accessible and is classed as a 'path for many'.

    Seating, rest points and shelter
    There are a number of seats dotted around the Aira Force site.

    Visitor centre
    The Lake District Visitor Centre has a ramped entrance.
