This gentle tour includes the highest green lane in England that once served the regions lead mine industry; it is not uncommon for there to be snow on the tops early spring and late autumn. The North Pennines was designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1988 for its moorland scenery, the product of centuries of farming and lead-mining.
At almost 2,000 square kilometres (770 sq mi) it is the second largest of the AONB in the United Kingdom.
