Bokerley Dyke is a substantial linear earthwork, approximately 5.75 kilometers (3.6 miles) long, located on Cranborne Chase. It runs along part of the border between Dorset and Hampshire, specifically between Woodyates and Martin. It is part of a larger Scheduled Monument that also includes Grim's Ditch and other earthworks. The dyke has a multi-period history. It is believed to have originated in the Bronze Age or Early Iron Age as an important political and cultural boundary. In the 1st century, it was cut through by a Roman road, Ackling Dyke, which ran between Old Sarum and Badbury Rings. In the 4th century, the dyke was remodeled and brought back into use. During this period, the Roman road was blocked. A coin of Valens found during excavations dates this activity to shortly after 364 AD, with some sources suggesting it was built between 367-368 AD. This remodeling may have been a defensive measure against attacks on Britain by Picts, Scots, and Saxons. The Roman road was eventually reopened, but the dyke may have continued to be used as a boundary after the Roman administration ended. Today, it still forms part of the border between the counties of Dorset and Hampshire.

Grovely Wood is one of Wiltshire's largest mixed woodlands and there's loads of trail running potential here. Particularly beautiful in spring, the chalk ridge it woodland adorns is a delight all year round. This section is part of the Monarch's Way, a 625-mile (1,006 km) long-distance trail that represents the escape route taken by King Charles II after his defeat at the battle of Worcester.

‘Harnham Chalk Pit’ as it is marked on maps, is a long-abandoned chalk quarry that has been taken back by nature. Several different levels accessed with paths that scramble up the quarry sides. I imagine they will be lethal after recent rainfall! Loads of butterflies and wildflowers seen today (August). Unfortunately litter appears to be an issue here, not excessive but noticeable. It baffles me why anyone leaves rubbish indiscriminately in locations like this. Great distant view of Salisbury Cathedral from upper levels.

The Miz Maze is a unique and fascinating attraction located in the heart of the English countryside. The maze invites visitors of all ages to have fun and explore the intricate network of hedges and try to find their way out.

3.5 mile long (prehistoric) boundary ditch

Really good place to go for beginners and lovely view definitely worth it!

Nice hill climb with views across Cranborne Chase. Decent is a great fun as long as there’s no crosswinds!
