The Pennine Way runs from Edale to Kirk Yetholm across England highest mountains outside the Lake District: the Pennines and the Cheviot Hills. This trek completes this classic route in one go.

Subtle changes of scenery occur throughout the Pennine Way. The dark gritstone of the Peak Distict gives way to the limestone Yorkshire Dales. What might be a surprise is just how much of the Pennines there is. Trekkers who have visited the Dales will find the hills extend much further North, to the North Pennines in fact and then to the Cheviots. Corners of Northern England are reached that despite being on a recognised route have an untouched feel.

If the whole route in three weeks doesn't appeal, you might consider taking 2, 3 or more trips to complete the route. Week-long trips (our South, Central and North weeks) or a series of long weekends are practical and give a sense of a campaign. Please contact us to discuss these approaches.

Your accommodation along the Pennine Way is a real variety from guesthouses to hotels tucked away in the hills. We go for friendliness, handy locations and good standards.
