EXPERIENCE:

Rising over ridges and snaking through moorland, the 73 mile-long Hadrian’s Wall is an incredible monument with incredible stories to tell. Go on a journey back to life on the frontier and into the Roman Empire’s extraordinary tale of power and ambition.

Start your Hadrian’s Wall adventure at Birdoswald Roman Fort, where you can still see the remains of all of the Wall’s defining features. Birdoswald Roman Fort is set on a spectacular ridge above the river Irthing, offering fabulous views down into the gorge below.
