A travelling exhibition celebrating 60 years of the Pennine Way is making another stop on its journey along the iconic National Trail, arriving in the North Pennines National Landscape for a two-month residency.

‘A Trail of Inspiration: the Pennine Way at 60’ features work from artists, musicians, videographers, writers and poets, all inspired by journeys and experiences along this beloved 268-mile walking route.

The exhibition will be on show at the North Pennines National Landscape’s Bowlees Visitor Centre, in Upper Teesdale from 3 July to 31 August.

Each of the artists has created their own response to their experiences of walking and enjoying the trail. From talking backpacks and music, to paintings and weavings, the exhibition is as rich and varied as a day spent walking along the Pennine Way. As well as the creative work, there is a canvas which gathers 300 images sent in by members of the public to share and celebrate the Pennine Way.

Please note that the exhibition space at Bowlees is accessed via stairs.
