Walking the Hadrian's Wall Trail - August 2023

Описание к видео Walking the Hadrian's Wall Trail - August 2023

An eight day hike across the North of England following the ancient Roman wall of Emperor Hadrian. The hike started on August 5th in Bowness-on-Solway with the team walking eastward to Newcastle (Wallsend).

Much of the wall has been removed over the centuries. The best scenes of the wall are Day 3 (8:10), Day 4 (12:00), and Day 5 (17:25).

Specific sites of note:
(00:49) Port ruins, Port Carlisle
(01:58) St. Mary Church, Beaumont
(04:12) Memorial Bridge, Carlisle
(08:55) Lanercost Priory
(09:25) Hare Hill Hadrian's Wall section
(09:45) Banks East Turret 52A
(10:43) Willaford Bridge (modern)
(13:17) Thirlwall Castle
(13:49) Walltown Park section Hadrian's Wall
(15:18) Cawfield Quarry
(16:26) Windshields Crags summit hillmarker (435 m)
(17:48) Vindolanda Roman Fort and village
(18:26) Sycamore Gap
(19:55) Homestead Roman Fort
(25:46) Wallsend Visitor Center, Newcastle

As a note, we crossed the Sycamore Gap on 8-9 August (Days 4 & 5), two months before vandals senselessly cut down this beautiful tree. The thought of it still deeply saddens me and, for that reason, it has been highlighted briefly in stills at the end of the Day 4 section - a sentinel on the horizon.

Translation to lyrics - "Góðan daginn" - Sigur Rós (beginning at 25:50):
"I send you the sun
Late in a summer's day
Temperature rises and the walking pace increases
Shines on the warm faces
It's a real day
Go go away cloud"
