A
walking holiday along Hadrian's Wall is a walk through
history. Hadrian's Wall once stretched across the width
of Northern Britain from coast to coast. It was built in
122 AD upon the orders of Emperor Hadrian and remains one
of the most magnificent Roman monuments in Britain today.
The Romans made very good use of the rugged landscape of
Northumberland when building the wall and this makes for
an ideal week of walking. In addition to the wall itself,
there are many examples of mile-castles, turrets and garrison
forts still standing which make this structure unique within
the Roman Empire.
Now nearly 1900 years later, the long-awaited Hadrian's Wall
Path National Trail links both ends of the Wall from Bowness-on-Solway
to Wallsend. Take a walking holiday along Hadrian's Wall and
join us on this unique walk into the past! |
