Day 8. Tues 19th June 2012. Hawes to Tan Hill Inn.17 miles. weather. Fine all day. Morning mostly overcast and cool on tops, afternoon warm sunshine all the way. Having spent the night in Hawes, we set of in fine fettle. We soon arrived at Hardraw where I took a short diversion to visit England's highest single drop waterfall at 98ft. We then scaled Great Shunner Fell which then became the highest point so far. It was a somewhat tedious slog before reaching Thwaite where we stopped for lunch. The next tihree miles, at high level to Keld were a delight. For me, the best section thus far. We then had a four mile uphill walk to the Tan Hill Inn, famously known as Britain's Highest Pub where we're about to watch England v Ukraine.
