This is a fab and relatively straight forward walk with views over the Wessex downs, three ancient hill forts, woodland ponds, with Longleat estate in the distance and the second half is FLAT. What’s more parking is free! Our half way destination is the village of Heytesbury and maybe a stop at the pub. What could be better! Oh, and only a handful of stiles.
Please bring a packed lunch.
For those members who are happy to car share, we meet first at the Bath Road car park in Chippenham. (“Pay and Display”).Lifts are suggested at £4.20.
