The town of Hawes in Upper Wensleydale is at the heart of the Yorkshire dales national park and is surrounded by some of the most beautiful countryside in England. One of the highest market towns the country has to offer, Hawes lies 259 metres above sea level and gained silver award for best day trip out from English Tourist Board in 1998 (to my mind it still is). The Pennine way passes through the town along its 268 mile route and it is a popular destination for walkers as well as the many tourists that flock here each year. Hawes is a picturesque little town with cobbled streets and old world charm around every corner and has a tiered waterfall at its centre (a meeting point for many).
