This trail takes you right past Stonehenge and is utterly breathtaking. From this spot, you get about as close to the Neolithic monument as paying guests do. Stonehenge is a World Heritage Site and best known prehistoric monument in Europe.

Be extremely careful and take NO chances with the fast traffic if crossing the A303 !

You can ride up to the side of the stones without needing a ticket. Get there at dawn or sunset for the best experience. Go one better and join the crowds on the solstices or equinox where you can get right up to the monument and feel the power of our ancestors! (for free)

If you are in the area, a mandatory stopover, and there is also no need to pay an entrance fee because you pass very close to the monument.
When you leave, be careful if you are going to pass through the A303.

A television series that I wholeheartedly recommend introduces culture-loving viewers to remarkable testimonies to human activity from many countries around the world. What they all have in common is that they have been granted "World Heritage" status by UNESCO. One of the episodes documents the ancient and still mysterious stone circle of Stonehenge.

The accompanying documentary states: "The Salisbury Plateau in southern England is a harsh and uninviting area, often subject to cold and biting winds. About 5,000 years ago, during the Neolithic period, people lived here, about whom we know very little. But what they and subsequent generations left behind is impressive beyond measure: the stone circles and burial mounds of the Megalithic culture."

This film (in German) can be found in the ARD media library under the following link => ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/stonehenge-grossbritannien-folge-16/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS83MjQ1ODkw
