Hadrian's Wall Run Highlights
https://www.contoursrun.co.uk/hadrians-wall-run-highlights
A trail running holiday along the Roman monument, from Wallsend to Bowness-on-Solway.
From £345 per person
Follow Hadrian’s Wall through stunning Northumbrian countryside on this historic trail running holiday from Wallsend to Bowness-on-Solway. The rolling hills are sure to test you and offer a serious challenge on a higher mileage itinerary, but with its clear waymarking and abundance of archaeological sites to keep you entertained, Hadrian’s Wall Path is still a great choice for the less experienced multi-day runner.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
This route can be walked in either direction - just tick the 'Reverse Tours' box when choosing your tour to see options travelling in the non-standard direction.
We also organise walking holidays along this route. Find out more.

The Hadrian’s Wall Path National Trail provides a quality challenge for runners, yet is still suitable for the less experienced. This Highlights route has been developed to offer a shorter, though no less enticing option for those looking for a slightly more approachable adventure to break them in.
Setting off from Corbridge, the Highlights tour takes in far-reaching panoramas right from the start, as well as countless historic remains which tell the fascinating story of the region’s turbulent past.
The route follows the line of Hadrian’s Wall as closely as possible, allowing you to run in the footsteps of the Roman legionaries themselves.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour. Sometimes there may be a shortage of available accommodation in a preferred location, in which case we will transfer you from the trail to your accommodation and back again at no extra charge. Overnight stops marked with a (T) will always require transfers as standard.
Overnight stops marked with an (L) have very limited accommodation, and therefore more often than not will also require a transfer, particularly on bank holidays and weekends. We will use non-transfer accommodation wherever possible.
The daily mileages quoted are average trail miles only and do not include the distance from the trail to your accommodation. We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation in most cases; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard if practical. A very limited number of stops will require you to travel on foot up to two miles off the trail, however these instances will be clearly communicated to you if applicable.
Further transfers may also be required due to some accommodations having a two-night minimum booking policy, especially at weekends.
Below are the additional costs that may apply depending on your requirements. Dog-friendly tours are subject to a Daily Dog Charge, which will be listed below if applicable. Our standard prices per person are based upon two people sharing a room; if you are on your own, or are part of a group but require a room of your own, then the Solo Traveller or Single Supplements apply respectively:
