バーウィックバセットでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Wooded area within the Fyfield Downs. Be careful on your choice of footwear. It's muddy, really muddy.... and slippy. Have fun!!

This is a very picturesque section of The Ridgeway thought to be one of Britain's oldest roads! You'll be traversing along the exact route that has been used since prehistoric times by travellers, herdsmen and soldiers - a real fascinating piece of history!

The Wessex Ridgeway is a long distance, ridge-top footpath that runs from Marlborough in Wiltshire to Lyme Regis in Dorset. Whilst this is only a small section of the route, it is still a very scenic one, where you can enjoy gorgeous vistas of rolling hills and endless farmland.

This is a particularly scenic stretch along the Ridgeway, an ancient road which runs through right through the North Wessex Downs Area of Natural Beauty. The Ridgeway is often deemed Britain's oldest road, having been used by travellers, herdsmen and soldiers to travel cross-country since prehistoric times.

The wonderful views and fast flowing descent after Hackpen Hill heading South-East over the summit toward Marlborough

On a clear day the views from on top the Ridgeway are excellent.

The Hackpen Horse is one of the younger chalk horses carved into hillsides in the south of England and one of nine in Wiltshire alone. Likely carved in honour of Queen Victoria in the mid-1800s, the horse sits just below the Ridgeway path as it well-maintained. Because it's on a hillside, the horse is best seen from below (or from the air!). It's encircled by a lane and a footpath, and you can see parts of it from almost any angle.

Often referred to as Britain's oldest road, the Ridgeway is an ancient route that has been used since prehistory. It stretches from Avebury to Ivinghoe Beacon while this section stretches from Overton Down to Barbury Castle, an Iron Age hillfort. Sweeping grassland, open views and a sense of walking in ancient footsteps, this is a majestic trail.
