쉬운 Greenhead 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

이곳은 하드리아누스 방벽 중에서도 가장 멋진 구간 중 하나로, 계곡을 따라 구불구불 이어지며 언덕 꼭대기의 바위 절벽 위를 넘나듭니다. 방벽은 이곳에서 상태가 좋으며, 로마인들이 어떻게 방벽을 바위 절벽 지형에 통합하여 환상적인 국경 방어선을 구축했는지 보여줍니다. 이곳은 하드리아누스 방벽에서 가장 경치 좋은 지점 중 하나입니다.

Milecastle 42 is one of those spots on Hadrian’s Wall that feels like you’ve just stumbled on a hidden gem. It’s not huge, but that’s part of the charm – you can properly picture the Roman soldiers posted here, staring out across the wild Northumberland landscape and wondering what on earth they’d signed up for. The views are cracking, the ruins are well-marked, and it gives you that instant connection to history without being swamped by crowds. A quick stop, but a memorable one – exactly what you want on a wall walk.

Cawfields Quarry is a former quarry located directly on Hadrian's Wall near Haltwhistle. Constructed in the early 20th century, the quarry cut through the Roman wall, exposing the underlying dolerite rock of the Whin Sill. This geological formation formed a natural defensive line upon which the Romans built their wall. Following the quarry's closure, the site has been redeveloped into a peaceful recreation area with a picturesque lake, picnic areas, and walking trails. The area offers direct access to Milecastle 42.

45 years ago, this site was a working quarry, where the hard whinstone was blasted with dynamite to provide road stone for the expanding road network of the early 20th Century. After it closed in 1976, the quarry was filled in and landscaped, planted with trees and flowers, and today is a haven for wildlife and nature. Now it is a place to relax, watch wildlife and feed the ducks, but you can also find adventure in its meadows and woodlands and get a real taste of the wild!

Originally built in the 12th century, and later strengthened using stones from nearby Hadrian’s Wall, Thirlwall Castle began to fall into disrepair in the 17th century. The site is protected by Grade I listed building and Scheduled Ancient Monument status. In 1999, Northumberland National Park Authority acquired a 99-year lease on Thirlwall Castle and 10 hectares of adjacent woodland. This is a great historic vista for the eyes for passing runners and why don't you come back for a picnic in the grounds when your not huffing and puffing so much.
