The Pennine Way
The Pennine Way
£4.99
The Pennine Way is the first, & some would say the toughest, of Britains National Trails. It runs for 256 miles up from Edale in the Peak District along the crest of the Pennines
- sometimes known as the Backbone of England
- & the Cheviot Hills of Northumberland across the Scottish Border to the village of Kirk Yetholm. The idea of access campaigner & outdoor journalist Tom Stephenson in 1935, the Pennine Way took 60 years to come into being, & is now probably the best-known test of long distance walking in the country. This book is a celebration, rather than a guide to the Pennine Way. While covering the important highlights, it does not stick to the designated route religiously but meanders from the official path where there are points of interest along the way.
