Hadrian's Wall Walk – Sites Worth Seeing

For anyone considering a walking holiday on Hadrian’s Wall next year – there are a couple of sites I have come across lately which you might find interesting.

First up, an interview with David Glade, the Hadrian’s Wall National Trail Officer on Country Walking Magazine’s site, Live for the Outdoors. A bit of history on Hadrian’s Wall walk, and a few conservation tips for people on walking holidays along the wall. The quality’s a bit amateurish (could they not find a microphone holder?) but some useful information.

The second 2 sites are anything but amateurish – 2 websites of local photographers both worth great Hadrian’s Wall portfolios:

Roger Clegg, from Hexham, has recently won the Northumberland National Park Authority’s prize in the Landscape Photographer of the Year Competition, with a number of fine Hadrian’s Wall pho’s showcased on the Journal Live site . I particularly like Walltown Crags in the sunrise.

The second site is Joan Thirlaway’s After the Rain site , with a whole host of Hadrian’s Wall pictures, in a number themed galleries. Checkout the sunset at Crag Lough. It’s not often you get such glassy calm water in the evening.
