Linton is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, set amid the limestone scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. It lies close to the River Wharfe and the well‑known cascade at Linton Falls, making it a quiet base for walkers and cyclists exploring nearby dales, limestone pavements and riverside paths.
Traditionally agricultural, the parish retains a strong rural character with stone houses, drystone walls and working farms; tourism now supplements the local economy, drawing visitors to the natural scenery and historic features. Community life is typical of a small Dales settlement, centred on village gatherings and the rhythms of farming and outdoor recreation.
