    Peel Crags: This sheer cliff face forms one of the most dramatic sections of Hadrian's Wall. The path winds along the edge of Whin Sill, offering panoramic views of Crag Lough and the former Sycamore Gap. The combination of geology, history, and landscape makes Peel Crags an iconic stop for walkers and cyclists.
