An iconic self-guided trail running holiday from Edale to Kirk Yetholm through the Peak District, Pennines, Yorkshire and Northumberland.
From £375 per person
From the heart of the Peak District all the way up to Scotland, the Pennine Way is a legendary trail that follows England’s backbone through the best wilderness of the north. But don’t picture the cold slog of the Spine Race when you look at this route. Undertaken in good weather and with reasonable daily mileages, this challenging trail run offers unique and staggering views like the great scoop of High Cup Nick. Villages nestled in the crooks of the Pennines and the Cheviot Hills provide memorable rest stops, and you’ll even visit a stretch of Hadrian’s Wall. The Pennine Way is full of challenging terrain, but its remote spaces offer endless rewards. A classic challenge.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
We also organise walking holidays along this route. Find out more.
From £770 per person
Along packhorse trails and drovers’ ways, cross the remote, windswept moors of the South Pennines and the flowering fields of the Yorkshire Dales on our Pennine Way South trail running holiday. From Edale to Middleton-in-Teesdale, you’ll tackle daunting landscapes over Kinder Scout, Pinshaw Beacon and Top Withen, and spend each night in a welcoming village nestled beneath the peaks.
The limestone scenery of the Yorkshire Dales awaits in the second half of your holiday, with stand-out views of Malham Cove and Tarn and the stunning green slopes of Wenselydale and Teesdale.
With the best of the Peak District and Yorkshire Dales included, the Pennine Way South is a stunning challenge run.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour. Sometimes there may be a shortage of available accommodation in a preferred location, in which case we will transfer you from the trail to your accommodation and back again at no extra charge. Overnight stops marked with a (T) will always require transfers as standard.
Overnight stops marked with an (L) have very limited accommodation, and therefore more often than not will also require a transfer, particularly on bank holidays and weekends. We will use non-transfer accommodation wherever possible.
The daily mileages quoted are average trail miles only and do not include the distance from the trail to your accommodation. We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation in most cases; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard if practical. A very limited number of stops will require you to travel on foot up to two miles off the trail, however these instances will be clearly communicated to you if applicable.
Further transfers may also be required due to some accommodations having a two-night minimum booking policy, especially at weekends.
Below are the additional costs that may apply depending on your requirements. Dog-friendly tours are subject to a Daily Dog Charge, which will be listed below if applicable. Our standard prices per person are based upon two people sharing a room; if you are on your own, or are part of a group but require a room of your own, then the Solo Traveller or Single Supplements apply respectively:
