    Tips

    The Wayfarer's Walk is a 70-71 mile (113-114 km) long-distance footpath in England, running from the highest chalk downland to the coast.

    Here are the key details, which clarify its route regarding Wiltshire:

    Overall Route: It stretches from Inkpen Beacon (near the border of Berkshire/Hampshire) in the north, southwards to Emsworth Harbour on the south coast of Hampshire.

    Wiltshire Connection: The trail is primarily located within Hampshire and starts just over the border in West Berkshire. It does not pass through the main body of Wiltshire.

    Highlights: The walk follows ancient drovers' tracks and includes spectacular scenery over the North Wessex Downs, passing notable sites like:

    Walbury Hill (England's highest chalk hill)

    Watership Down

    Ladle Hill (the fort you asked about previously)

    Views of Highclere Castle

    The Meon Valley

    The path is well-marked with a distinctive "WW" waymarker.
