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.

After Rain, in winter, muddy and slippery under foot. At least 45+mm tyres. I guess, this is a fantastic trail in summer.

This part of the Clarendon Way passes along an old roman road between Buckholt and Middle Winterslow. The terrain is generally ok, but can be muddy in winter! The Clarendon Way joins Salisbury and Winchester over 24 miles.

In the middle of the nave is the large baptismal font with constantly flowing water. It was created in 2008 by designer William Pye. The windows on the opposite side are reflected on the water surface of the baptismal font.

The terrain is gently undulating, so you can get a decent pace going without too much effort. The few cars I did encounter were slow and courteous. A truly fabulous cycle route.

This fun section of trail is narrow and technical in places with rocks and roots. In summer, you can expect to earn a fair few nettle stings as you ride but nothing too major. This path leads onto some wonderful gravel tracks that take you all the way to Old Sarum prehistoric hill fort.
