United Kingdom Hadrian’s Wall - Sewingshields Crags

Roman Emperor Hadrian built a 117 Km wall, from coast to coast in England, forming the Northern frontier of the Roman empire in AD122. It runs from Bowness-on-Solway, outside Carlisle on the east, to Wallsend, at the mouth of the River Tyne near Newcastle. When you see it and discover how it operated, you just have to admire the Romans for what they achieved. It’s a good walk with interesting photo opportunities along the way.

Here, you can see remnants of the wall running along the green horizon.

Its landscapes, so a standard or wide-angle lens is fine.

We took a self-guided tour where our luggage was taken daily to our next hotel while we walked following a map on a phone app.

As a day walk, this was a good one but quite steep in parts.
