The Pennine Way is a 430km long distance trail in England, starting from Edale in Derbyshire and ending at Kirk Yetholm just across the border in Scotland. It is also the first national trail in England, opened on 24th April 1965. On its way it crosses three National Parks (Peak District, Yorkshire Dales, Northumberland) and the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
