The pennine way
The Pennine Way, the longest footpath in Britain, runs from the Peak District to Kirk Yetholm, across the Scottish Border. As the first Long Distance Footpath to be completed it is already well established in the public eye. In 1965, a survey on four days in the summer holiday period showed that half of those passing some 15 checkpoints were on walks lasting more than ten days, and that nearly a third intended to walk the whole 250 miles. Clearly the Way is providing a challenge that many find exciting. It does so in an age which leaves us fewer and fewer opportunities to use our legs for walking, and our eyes and ears for sights and sounds that have not changed over centuries. The Way crosses some of the roughest and most remote country in England, but other parts lie within.
