Bleak and desolate yet utterly captivating and atmospheric, Salisbury Plain is a wonderful place. With loads of gravel tracks to explore, there’s plenty to keep you entertained. Be mindful of the military ranges, though.

Stretching 300 square miles (780 km) across central southern England, Salisbury Plain is a beautiful chalk plateau brimming with history and stunning landscapes. Made up of grassland with pockets of woodland, the plain is a wildlife haven and includes two national nature reserves. You can find many rare plants and animals living here.

Around half of the plain is used as a military training area and live firing is conducted most of the year. You will find signs warning you of any army operations.
