No.2: Hadrian's Wall

Walking the 84 miles of the Hadrian's Wall path would certainly stretch their little legs, but along the way there are Roman sites, milecastles and museums to hold everyone's attention.The wall was built in AD122 by order of the Emperor Hadrian, and took three legions just over six years to build. Contrary to popular belief, the wall wasn't built to hold back marauding Scots, but as a form of border control so that the occupying Romans could monitor the flow of people north and south.
