 Discovering
the North Pennines: Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
The North Pennines is a truly special place. Here, in this dramatic
landscape of rugged moors, gentle dales and historic towns and
villages, you will find a rich industrial and social heritage,
an abundance of flora and fauna and a wealth of natural beauty.
There is so much to explore and discover; mighty castles, ancient
churches, thundering waterfalls, scenic reservoirs, long distance
trails and quiet riverside walks. Traditional, stone built villages
are scattered along the valley floors and the highest roads
in England afford breathtaking views as they climb over the
lofty moorland ridges that separate the dales. It comes as no
surprise to discover that the North Pennines has been designated
as one of Englands largest "Areas of Outstanding Natural
Beauty". Tour
