콜링본 킹스턴 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

historical place

Be careful on the final descent, pothole in road on steep section. Hit that at speed and you could do some damage. Otherwise a very nice steady climb in two parts. Great views from the top.

Crofton Pumping Station advertises that it has the oldest working steam engine in the world. The idea was actually to route the canal through a mountain at a lower altitude using a tunnel. But this project was too expensive and too complex. That's why the pumping station was built. It once reliably filled the canal with water at the geographically highest points of the route.

Supurb pub serving excellent food. I fully recommend the sharing platters. There's outdoor seating in a concrete courtyard. Very friendly staff too.

Heading North out of Collingbourne Ducis - steady and gradual but nice and quiet on the Wiltshire Cycleway

It's called fashún, Brenda. Lovely little lane of cattle walking to milking/pasture

Nestled in Pewsey Vale in the Wessex Downs AONB, the pretty village of Wilton has a duck pond and a pub, with Wilton Windmill a short distance away.

Looked after by English Heritage but free to enter, Ludgershall Castle probably began construction in the late 11th century and was improved in the 13th century by King John and his son Henry III, when it was used as a hunting lodge. Today, the atmospheric ruins comprise three large walls and extensive earthworks. Also worth seeing is the 14th-century cross nearby in the centre of Ludgershall village.
