A walk from Corbridge to Brampton along the most fascinating part of Hadrian's Wall.
From £400 per person
Walked over the course of four or five days, the Hadrian’s Wall Highlights tour takes in far-reaching views, the wall’s remarkably intact remains, and the towns the wall built, as its stone was pilfered away by opportunistic Brits after the Roman empire’s withdrawal.
The Hadrian’s Wall Highlights walk begins in Corbridge, where extensive Roman remains include a fountain house, granaries, and a walled military compound. There is plenty more to see along the length of this tour before arriving at the finishing point in Brampton and exploring the local area more thoroughly.
