Paddington has been seated on a bench on Fisherton Street, outside The former General Infirmary, sporting his signature red hat, blue duffle coat, and a marmalade sandwich in paw. Great spot for a selfie.

Pro Tip: Salisbury Navigation — Start Smart, Finish Smarter Salisbury is a natural waypoint on the King Alfred’s Way — a scenic and historic city, but also a maze for a tired bikepacker. Here’s how to avoid the common pitfalls: 🧭 Navigation Hazards: The city layout can be disorienting after a long day in the saddle, especially with phone fatigue, low battery, or GPS signal issues. Preload your route offline and drop a pin at your parking location or train station before rolling out. 📱 Backup Nav: Bring a secondary form of navigation — a small power bank, a basic GPS unit, or even a paper map. If you’re relying on your phone, make sure screen timeouts and lockouts won’t leave you stranded (ask me how I know…). 📦 Start/End Point Logistics: If parking in Salisbury, choose a well-marked car park close to a landmark or note the street name. Trusting “Find My Parked Car” or memory alone can lead to a post-ride goose chase. A hidden hero? An AirTag stashed in your car. 🚴‍♂️ Ride Timing: Salisbury is a great place to begin or end a leg — just be aware of city traffic and tourist footfall, especially near the cathedral. Early starts and twilight returns can ease your flow through town.

Riverside pub serving food and real ales

Perfect bike pit stop

The Woodford has a number of enjoyable winding country roads that are relatively quiet and well-surfaced and offer beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.

Nom Nom Nom. Lovely Cafe

We stayed here for the Enve Stone Circle Ride and it was absolutely beautiful!

"St Thomas’s belongs to the Church of England and is also part of the Inclusive Church initiative, which means that we are committed to ensure that all are truly welcome, whatever their story. ... Our beautiful building is the latest one on this site which has been used for worship for nearly eight hundred years. Most of the building seen today dates from the 15th century, and the church houses many treasures from across the centuries. St Thomas's has always been the church of the City, and the painted badges of the Guilds are still visible in the medieval wall paintings of the Lady Chapel."

Great Wishford sits in a meander of the River Wylye, beneath the chalk ridge adorned by the beautiful Grovely Wood. From the village, Grovely Road leads up to the woodland trails and is a good option for those looking to tackle some hill reps. According to an ancient custom, the residents of the village are permitted to gather firewood annually from Grovely Wood on Oak Apple Day, which is the 29th of May. The village pub, the Royal Oak, is a good shout for post run refreshment.

Upper Woodford is a pretty village in the charming Woodford Valley. The Sarsen Way long-distance trail passes through the village, while the Monarch's Way skirts it to the south. Walkers are welcome in the local pub, the Bridge Inn, which serves traditional pub grub, has outdoor seating in its riverside garden and has a wood-burner for those chillier afternoons and evenings.

Good trip for hiking or cycling with some interesting history. Not to far from Stonehenge

I'll go swimming elsewhere.

Very useful water refill point with good signage.

Great spot to stop for a breather or grab some refreshments before hitting the rest of the trial. food is great, reasonable prices and big beer garden. What's not to love?

The carta magnefiek was special to see.

This beautiful church in the heart of Salisbury is often bypassed in favour of the magnificent cathedral. However, this is a magnificent building with impressive architecture that's well worth a visit.

stunning views, even spotted a couple of deer running alongside the road.

There's a small cafe just inside the main gate - you can bring your bike in and prop it up on the slope opposite the cafe and purchase some refreshments (without paying the full entry price). There are toilets in the car park too, which might be useful!
