Begin the trek at Segedunum Roman Fort in Wallsend and the trail soon takes you along the famous River Tyne.

After passing through Newcastle’s centre, you will be able to escape from its City boundaries and head up to Heddon on the Wall for a tranquil night. This village is also home to a still-intact 100 metre stretch of Hadrian’s Wall.

Guests will stay in a town nearby with transport included due to the limited accommodation available.

If booking the bag transfer option, we collect your luggage from any Newcastle City Centre hotel.

Overnight Accommodation: Heddon or nearby town

The Wall itself will come into sight as you trek south on the Roman Road. After overcoming a few small climbs, you’ll eventually pass near Vindolanda Roman Fort. A couple miles down the road, you’ll come across Harlow Hill – a small hamlet with an old pub called Robin Hood Inn which offers great food. The remainder of the walk goes along Hadrian’s Wall for about two miles, paralleling the B6319 highway which was built directly above part of the wall.

Overnight accommodation: Chollerford

From Chollerford, you will notice the landscape changing to be more remote. After a long section of uphill, you should find yourself at an even ground with a true feeling of seclusion. As a result, most of the wall and defenses are intact in this section – giving you the opportunity to enjoy milecastles, turrets, gatehouses, fortresses and temples. These various landmarks are broken throughout your walk where you can explore their history further by reading information boards or visiting museums.

Overnight accommodation: Once Brewed or nearby town

This next portion of the walk takes you to Gilsland via Milecastle 41, Cawfields, Great Chesters, and Aesica Roman Fort. You’ll see the trail from Hadrian’s Wall as it twists and turns its way over the rugged crags of Windshield. This final leg can be a little treacherous due to the rough terrain, so make sure you take care in wetter conditions.

Overnight accommodation: Gilsland or nearby town

Gilsland is in the middle of Cumbrian and Norhtumberland with the River Irthing making up the border. The terrain will vary a lot here – from one hill to the next. It contains some of the most-preserved parts of Hadrian’s Wall, as well as some sections that are in surprisingly good condition for how much time has passed. You’ll enjoy views that stretch for miles in every direction, including to the Lake District to the south-west

Please note, if choosing trip only bags should be left in Carlisle for return after the last section for collection.

Overnight accommodation: Carlisle

Follow the River Eden and head to the road out past Port Carlisle before arriving at Bowness on Solway and the end point.

Well done – you have treked Hadrian’s Wall.
