We are the West Wiltshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A walk through the former royal forest of Savernake, just east of Marlborough. The forest claims to have 33 named oaks, some estimated to be over 1000 years old – we’ll try and find a few of them. The walk starts at the Postern Hill car park and weaves south-east across the forest to the Ailesbury Column, then north east and onto the Grand Avenue. Then a short detour east to the Amity Oak and back to Postern Hill. Hopefully the autumn fall of leaves will be in its full magnificence. A flat woodland walk with plenty of shelter in the trees. A coffee stop and a lunch stop at convenient points where there are appropriate tree stumps.

Park and meet at Postern Hill Car Park, south-east of Marlborough (free). Postern Hill is 26 miles from Trowbridge – AA Route Planner gives a journey time of 47 minutes. Travel to Marlborough and then take the A346 towards Burbage. Car park signposted on the left just beyond the top of the hill coming out of Marlborough.
