At this point a short way north of Greenhead, the two arguably most popular National Trails - the oldest, the Pennine Way which runs 268 miles from Edale to Kirk Yetholm http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/PennineWay/ and the newest, Hadrian's Wall Path Hadrians Wall National Trail which runs 84 miles from Bowness-on-Solway to Wallsend http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/hadrianswall/ - join forces and continue eastwards together over the finest section of Hadrian's Wall for some 12 Km.
