Title: Hadrian's Wall Path - 2012 (May-July)
Post by: LennyJ1 on August 05, 2011
I am thinking about doing Hadrian's Wall next year and was thinking about doing the 7 nights 6 days walk.

Day 1: Travel to Wallsend.

Day 2: Wallsend to Heddon-on-the-Wall. 15 miles (24km).

Day 3: Heddon-on-the-Wall/Wylam to Chollerford. 15 miles (24km).

Day 4: Chollerford to Once Brewed. 12 miles (19km).

Day 5: Once Brewed to Haytongate. 141/2 miles (23km).

Day 6: Haytongate to Carlisle. 13 miles (21km).

Day 7: Carlisle to Bowness-on-Solway. 141/2 miles (23km).

Day 8: Depart from Bowness-on-Solway.

I was also considering doing it for charity and would like to know if anyone would like to do it also?
