Beautiful views across Fyfield Down, part of the gorgeous Marlborough Downs, over towards West Woods from Delling.

The first part of the path from the Ridgeway is grass (but well-drained), but then turns into good gravel track.

A truly fabulous route. A short section of flat, short grass is soon replaced by fabulous gravel track that goes on for miles... nearly as far as Marlborough..

This top notch gravel track crosses the Ridgeway and is signposted for the Wessex Ridgeway, linking Avebury to Marlborough.

After climbing up from Avebury on the chalky Herepath, you'll cross over the main Ridgeway track and though the gate here to see the signpost for Fyfield Down.

Enjoy this grassy track that leads to a killer descent and climb, through a few more gates and then towards the gallops before joining the road down into Marlborough town.
