Hadrian"s Wall Path is the National Trail of some 84 miles, linking Wallsend, near Newcastle-upon-Tyne, with Bowness-on-Solway on England"s west coast. The Path shadows, for its greater part, the historic line of Hadrian"s Wall; it lies within a landscape of dramatic contrasts, starting amid bustling, redeveloped Newcastle, and finishing on the lonely shores of the Solway Firth. This is the complete, official guide for the long-distance walker or the weekend stroller. National Trail Guides are the official guidebooks to the fifteen National Trails in England and Wales and are published in association with Natural England, the official body charged with developing and maintaining the Trails.
