Pennine Way South

The southern section of the 256-mile Pennine Way starts at Edale in the heart of the Peak District and runs northwards along the hills, which form the backbone of England, through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park to Bowes on the south-eastern borders of the Lake District. This book provides a full and detailed description of the route accompanied by 1: 25,000 Ordnance Survey maps marked with points of interest along the route. There is information on geology, land use, wildlife and features of historical or archaeological interest as well as a "Useful Information" section giving details of public transport and other facilities along the route. National Trail Guides are published in association with the Countryside Agency, the body responsible for setting up and maintaining these long-distance walking routes in England.
