This is the Hadrian's Wall everyone pictures.
Set out from Steel Rigg, beneath the crags of the Whin Sill,
and the path climbs, dips and climbs again, every crest bringing a bigger view.
Past the Roman milecastle at Castle Nick, high above the still water of Crag Lough.
The most dramatic miles of the whole trail, and the ones you'll remember for ever.
