Map of the 84 mile (135km) Hadrian's Wall Path National Trail, from Bowness-on-Solway to Wallsend, Newcastle. The full route line is shown on 1:25,000 OS maps and can be used to walk the trail in either direction.
All the mapping you need to walk the Hadrian’s Wall National Trail between Bowness-on-Solway in Cumbria and Wallsend, Newcastle. Covering 135km (84 miles), this historic route takes around 10 days to hike. Suitable for beginners, it nevertheless requires a reasonable level of fitness to undertake as a multi-day walk.
In 1980 Mark Richards began his three-part guide to the Peak District for Cicerone Press, and in 1987, with Chris Wright, wrote a guide to walking around the former county of Westmorland. He now lives in Cumbria and, after 14 years' dedicated research, has completed his series of Lakeland Fellranger guides covering the entire region. He has also written a guide to Hadrian's Wall.
