Stunning walk along the wall to the famous Tree featured in Robin Hood Prince of thieves. 25 mins travel time. 2 hour walk for adults there and back from Housesteads. Relatively challenging walk in places. Pack good footwear and expect harsher weather up on moors. Worth the effort. Park at Housesteads car park and make you way up onto the wall. Cafe and visitor centre at Housesteads.
