Overview

From the village of Urchfont the walk climbs up a steep path to Salisbury Plain.  We will then walk along the plain road with lovely views over to Pewsey Vale and on a clear day you can see 2 of Wiltshire’s white horses. We descend to the village of Eastcott where we will follow tracks and woodland paths to Oakfrith Woods and from there back to the school. No stiles or livestock

We will have one refreshment stop, probably at Oakfrith Wood where there are benches to sit on.
