Regular price £12.49The Pennine Way was the first National Trail, opened in 1965. Its 268 miles following the spine of the Pennine range all the way from the Peak District into the Scottish Borders. It remains one of the most demanding challenges to the long-distance walker.
This volume features the northern section of the Way, following the Countryside Agency’s acorn way marks from Bowes on the Cumbrian coast across the rugged Durham moors, past Hadrian’s Wall to Kirk Yetholm, a distance of 129 miles (207 km).
The scenery and sights range from the majestic sweep of High Cup though Cross Fell, the highest point of the Pennines, to the gloom of Kielder Forest. Whether you are walking the whole trail or just a weekend hike, this book is all you need.
