Tours

Officially opened in May 2003 after many years of negotiations with landlords and farmers to finalise the exact route which stretches 83 statute miles/133 km across town and country, forest and moorland, World Heritage Site and National Park. It is a great walk, with a lot of scenic variety from the modern, busy cityscapes of Newcastle Upon Tyne to the red sandstone hues of medieval Carlisle, from industrial Tyneside to the quiescence of Bowness on Solway. From the barren blustery heights of Highshields Crags in the Northumberland National Park; to the lime green pastoral scenes of the Eden valley. Omnipotent along the route the Wall snakes its way. In sections interrupting a housing estate here, popping up under a road there. Then from being little more than a grassy bank it transforms into stone and rollercoasters over crag tops and down into impressive fort like structures such as at Birdoswald and Housesteads.

Leave the latte behind as you don your brave face and embark on your own two-day Top End outback reality show.

DAY 1 – DARWIN TO LITCHFIELD NATIONAL PARK
Meet your expert guide at the front of your accommodation in Darwin and begin the journey south to Litchfield National Park. Visit historic mining ruins and ponder the nature of life on the frontier. See mother nature's statues (Cathedral and Magnetic Termite mounds) in and around the woodland, grassland and forests that form the natural backdrop as you provide witness to the scene.

Short hikes into secluded swim spots and viewpoints during the early afternoon before seeking the perfect location to savour dinner and watch the golden rays of sunset play across the ancient sandstone landforms of Litchfield Park.

As the ochre colours gain intensity and daylight closes out it is now time to gear up for a series of short night walks along less trodden pathways of Litchfield in search of the cute, the cuddly and the other type of WILD LIFE that finds refuge here.

Later that night enjoy a cold drink around the dancing campfire flames before retiring to the comfort of your personal tent of dreams.

DAY 2 – LITCHFIELD NATIONAL PARK

Rising early with the birds for a sunrise walk and light breakfast next to the clear waters of one of the many waterfall fed swim holes in Litchfield is the way we like to start our day. Relax and take in the scene and moments before exploring the other short hiking trails in the area. Spend the rest of the day doing short hikes, swims and learning about the natural wealth of food, medicine and resource plants in the area.

Returning to Darwin around 1730 pm.
