Hadrian's Wall Path is a superb National Trail that runs for 85 miles (137 km) beside the Roman wall between Bowness-on-Solway and Wallsend, near Newcastle. Experts can't agree whether it's better to walk it from west to east or vice versa, so this booklet uniquely does both: just flip it to reverse the direction with miles correctly numbered from 0 to 85.

This map booklet helps you to enjoy this classic walk in either direction or in both:

• route rewalked and updated in late 2025
• route line more accurate than OS mapping and the official website
• two booklets in one, west-to-east and east-to-west
• custom, clear mapping at 1:50,000: no irrelevant clutter
• forts, milecastles and visitor centres shown
• includes city centre plans for Carlisle and Newcastle upon Tyne
• lightweight (50 grams) and small enough to slip in your pocket
• robust, opens flat and printed on rainproof paper.
