The South Pennines are situated in the heart of England and can offer great days on the hill but are relatively unknown in the hill-walking world.

A special thanks to Georgina Collins for providing the great images in this article: for more pictures taken by her please visit her Flickr site at www.flickr.com/photos/georginah.
