In Alfred Wainwright's own words 'The Dunnerdale fells are low in stature, small in extent and insignificant on the map, yet they assert themselves on the local landscape in a bristly defiance of accepted mountain standards. Of course they are not worthy of comparison with Scafell or Great Gable, but they refuse to admit it.' Tarn Hill meets this description perfectly! It's accessed by following narrow paths through thick bracken, over a bit of boggy ground and dodging rocky outcrops but despite its downfalls, the views from here are something special. It's a great vantage point to view Stickle Pike (the next fell on our peak bagging list for the day) and the bigger fells beyond.
