Relics of lead mining can still be found in the town of Allendale, which was once a bustling hub of the industry. To the west lies Carlisle, the Lake District, Hexham, Newcastle, and Durham; to the east is Hexham, Newcastle and Durham; and to the north is the Hadrian's Wall. The North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a great starting point for exploring the surrounding countryside or heading north to the stunning Heritage Coastline. There are numerous walking and cycling trails in the area. Tar Bar'ls, a New Year's Eve event in Allendale, is well worth witnessing, as is the Allen Valleys Folk Festival, which takes place in the fall. Allendale is also a popular rest stop for cyclists completing the Coast to Coast race.
