Tan Hill (Keld)

The Tan Hill Inn (www.tanhillinn.com/) is the highest pub in England at 1732 ft (536 m) above sea level. It lies on the border of North Yorkshire and Durham, and its spectacular views make it the ideal place to relax. Tan Hill Inn has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and is home to a range of unusual animals, including Tan the lamb.

Must see and do:

High Force (Teesdale)

Next, the Pennine Way takes you to High Force, on the River Tees. At 70 feet high, High Force is one of the highest waterfalls in England. The descent down the gentle slops gives you different views of this magnificent waterfall every few yards. It's well worth a visit, but children must be supervised at al times.

Must see and do:

High Cup Nic & Cauldron Snout

The Pennine Way then takes you to High Cup Nic (www.nationaltrail.co.uk/PennineWay/gallery_image.asp?PageId=21&ImageId=27), a spectacular U-shaped valley. Stop and admire the views from the top before Cauldron Scout (www.nationaltrail.co.uk/pennineway/gallery_image.asp?PageId=21&ImageId=33) waterfall. At 200 yards long, it's one of the longest waterfalls in England, and is home to some plant species dating back form the Ice Age.
