Step back in time and walk the edge of an empire on the Walking The Best of Hadrian's Wall trip, a six-day trekking adventure through England’s storied northern frontier. Starting in Greenhead and ending in Corbridge, this self-guided tour invites you to follow Hadrian’s Wall Path, traversing Northumberland’s rolling countryside and craggy moorlands at your own pace.
Along the way, visit remarkably preserved Roman forts such as Birdoswald, Vindolanda, Housesteads, and Chesters. Wander through ancient milecastles and turrets, each echoing tales of soldiers and settlers who once guarded the empire’s boundary. Highlights include the world-famous Sycamore Gap and panoramic vistas from Walltown, Winshield, and Sewingshields Crags.
A unique aspect of this trekking tour is its west-to-east route, thoughtfully chosen so the prevailing winds are always at your back and the scenery unfolds dramatically as you walk. Stay in welcoming local inns and B&Bs, enjoying hearty Northumberland breakfasts that fuel your daily discoveries.
With its seamless blend of history, landscape, and self-guided flexibility, this trip is perfect for travelers who crave both independence and immersion in Britain’s ancient heartland.
