Ritson's Force' is a set of waterfalls in the valley of the Mosedale Beck in Cumberland, in the hills of the Lake District. It is found just above Wasdale Head. At Ritson's Force the Beck tumbles over a series of drops as it descends to the valley of the Lingmell Beck.
Below the falls the Mosdale Beck flows past the Wasdale Head Inn and the Great Gable Brewing Company.
Nearby hills include Scafell and Scafell Pike, the two highest mountains of the Lake District, and Great Gable, a popular climbing location.
