Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You need this one!
This is really, as one of the other comments mentioned, the only book yu'll need on your walk from Walls end to Bowness. It's light to carry, easy to navigate in, and extremely detailed maps - hand drawn - you can almost recognize every sheep or cow from the maps :)

There is a new, updated version (2008) of this, but we used the last one (this one). Check out the new version, as there are some mistakes in this one, although they are few and mostly good ("be ware of bulls" -fields not containging bulls anymore).



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A great walk and a great book to guide you through it
I would recommend taking with you this book, which has detailed descriptions, and gives the name and phone number of every place to eat, drink and stay along the way, and also the official National Trail guide (by Burton), which is particularly good for its OS maps.

On the walk itself, the first day (through central Newcastle), and the last two days (through Carlisle and to the sea) - were not the best bits: no visible Wall at all, and only the occasional sign of its accompanying earthworks.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The only guide you'll need
Trailblazer produce outstanding guides to a wide array of walks and holidays; this one provides all you'll need for the Hadrian's Wall Path. The books are small, so handy, and packed full of info on flora and fauna as well as where to stay, and of course the history of the area you're walking in. The maps are clear and simple. With this in your pocket you won't need anything else.
