We are the Wessex Wanderers Railway Walks. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A new walk from the Wessex Wanderer's, starting from Westbury Railway station. It is a pretty walk affording good views of Westbury Hill and the White Horse. We walk from the station via Haywood, Park Lane, Lower Westbury Road and Frogmore before heading back to the station.
A fairly flat walk, but with a couple of tricky sections where care is needed - trekking poles would be useful. Could be muddy in places. One busy road to cross.
Please bring a picnic lunch.
Registered Assistance dogs only.
