Hadrian's Wall Path Harvey National Trail XT40

Hadrian’s Wall Path, a 135km / 84 mile national trail between Bowness-on-Solway and Wallsend on Tyne which for the greater part of its course shadows the historic line of the Roman wall, presented at 1:40,000 on a map from Harvey Map Services. The route is shown on seven panels, with enlargements for important sections with archaeological remains.

Maps in the Harvey’s series covering Great Britain’s national trails and other long-distance footpaths are printed on light, waterproof and tear-resistant synthetic paper and cover the routes at 1:40,000 or 1:60,000. Topography is shown by contours at 15m intervals, with additional spot heights plus colouring and/or graphics to provide a very detailed picture of the terrain (boulder fields, scree, crags, etc) and vegetation / land use (pastures, moorland, woodlands, etc). In Scotland peaks and hills classified as Munros, Corbetts and Donalds are marked.

The overprint for the long-distance trail shows sections on local or main roads (highlighting danger points), on tracks, and on footpaths, indicating intermittent or not visible paths. The maps also show other right of way paths, including permissive paths and bridleways. Symbols indicate various facilities and accommodation options (including campsites and youth hostels), pubs and refreshments, food shops, banks, information points, etc, both along the route itself and in the nearby locations. All maps are GPS compatible, with the British National Grid overprinted on each panel. The maps also include useful contact details and general advice.
