Pennine Way Day 9 Horton in Ribblesdale to Hawes 11/07/2024

I arrived at Horton in Ribbledale station at 10:30 AM which was the earliest time available. After a short walk down from the station down to the The Crown pub I was back on the trail.


Most of todays trek was along an old drovers road /track , and a section of roman road. As a result navigation was straightforward.

Ribblehead Viaduct



What I really enjoyed about todays walk was looking around and seeing the three peaks of Penyghent , Ingleborough and Whernside bringing back memories of that succesful challenge several back in 2017.

The final part of the walk was across open moorland on Ten End and then a series of farm fields and country lanes before arriving  at the village of Gayle followed closely by Hawes.

After picking up some supplies from the Spar shop I arrived at the Chapel Indepependent Hostel.

I had a pleasant evening and a good sleep at the hostel.





Another great days walking on this fantastic trail. Approx 13.5 miles.
