Milk Hill is the highest point in Wiltshire and is part of the Pewsey Downs, a rolling set of chalk grassland hills between Devizes and Pewsey which are prominent in the landscape and almost invite the passer by to park up and take a stroll along the ridge. At just over 1,000 feet, they are high enough to offer fantastic views of the Pewsey Vale and beyond but low enough to make walking over them not too strenuous.

Adam’s Grave on Walker's Hill in Alton, the most dramatically located Neolithic long barrow in Wiltshire and the site of battles in 592 and 715. The area surrounding Walker's Hill is pitted and speckled with barrows and ditches of many sizes and shapes.

Milk Hill 294m, Pewsey Down, Wiltshire (County High Top). A longish but easy walk over undulating hills to get Milk Hill, the county top for Wiltshire. Thought I would do Tan Hill as well to bag a trig point. Turns out there was no summit marker on Milk Hill or a Trig Point on Tan Hill. Still, a lovely walk and well worth doing. Took Walkers Hill as well which is a great historic tomb. Route Statistics: Easy undulating trails with minimal ascent really. 9.2km done in 2hrs with 250m of height gain.

Amazing trail with Amazing history to explore.

Moderate trail with Amazing views and full of history

The view from the top is worth the long uphill trek. You can spot the various villages of the area from above and see some of the grand old houses that once owned the land

Giant's Grave is a hillfort with an enviable view. It sits on a natural promontory, stretching south west towards the village of Oare, into the Vale of Pewsey. On the summit you'll find a trig point at 820 feet (250 m) and wonderful views to the south, west and north. The White Horse Trail long-distance footpath ascends the summit on it's giant loop linking the south's chalk horse carvings.

Walkers Hill is a fantastic place from which to admire the Vale of Pewsey and surrounding downland. On a clear day, the vistas are exceptional, but the hill itself has plenty of interesting historical features. Adam's Grave is the most notable – a Neolithic long barrow. There are cross dykes (prehistoric earthworks), tumuli and ditches littered about the hillside too, typical of Wiltshire's ancient land. Just to the northwest lies the Alton Barnes white horse, cut in 1812.

The Cherhill White Horse is the second oldest in Wiltshire being cut in 1780, possibly inspired by the horse at Westbury cut two years earlier. There is a far older horse at Uffington Castle in Oxfordshire which is thought to date back to the Bronze Age some 3000 years ago. The Cherhill horse was made under the guidance of Dr Christopher Alsop of Calne who gave instructions by megaphone from a distance. At one time there were 13 white horses in Wiltshire now only 8 survive due to lack of management. The Cherhill horse which is looked after by the local Parish Council underwent some serious restoration in 2002. The outline needed to be re-cut and 160 tonnes of fresh chalk was packed on to the horse held in place by wooden boarding. Now the horse is maintained by weeding and re-chalking every two years which is done by the Cherhill White Horse Restoration Group with the help of the local scout group. www.nationaltrust.org.uk/calstone-and-cherhill-downs/features/cherhill-white-horse

The Cherhill White Horse is the second oldest in Wiltshire, created two years later than the horse at Westbury, which was cut in 1778. From this spot above the horse, you get breathtaking views over the picturesque countryside.
