The views from Old Sarum are highly praised and are one of the main reasons visitors come to the site. Because the castle is situated on a commanding hilltop, it offers sweeping and far-reaching views across the Wiltshire countryside. Wiltshire Countryside: You get unrivalled, expansive views over the surrounding Wiltshire plains and farmland. The ancient earthworks of the hillfort provide a perfect vantage point to take in the landscape. Modern Salisbury: From the inner castle ramparts, you can clearly see the city of Salisbury (sometimes called "New Sarum"), including the tall spire of Salisbury Cathedral in the distance. This visual link connects the historic, lost city on the hill with the modern city that grew from it. The Plains and Sky: The high, open position of Old Sarum makes it a great spot for enjoying the sky and weather, with many visitors noting the dramatic atmosphere or simply the pleasure of the open air. The ramparts, in particular, are described as the perfect place to explore on foot and take in these views. As one visitor noted, "You can see miles from the inner castle ramparts." Old Sarum itself is a historical marvel, layered with over 5,000 years of history, including an Iron Age hillfort, a Roman settlement, and the site of William the Conqueror's motte-and-bailey castle and the original Salisbury Cathedral. The views serve as a stunning backdrop to this significant historic site.

We had to cut off part of the route as it was too bogey.

wet and muddy day out with Ashley would've been a good gravel ride in the dry missed out Grovely Wood Wheatsheaf Pub was a good start finish venue

Admission charges apply to the top of Old Sarum (free if you are a member of English Heritage), & car park charge (also free for English Heritage members). Toilets available in the car park.

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

The picturesque Woodford Valley, where the River Avon lazily meanders towards Salisbury, is home to three attractive villages: Upper, Middle and Lower Woodford. Running the quiet country lanes is a delight, as is picking up the many trails that explore the region. A trio of named long-distance trails pass through: the Sarsen Way, the Old Sarum Way and the Monarch's Way.
