Sunday: Stonehenge Landscape World Heritage Site - 10 miles

After the previous day’s group Grand Day Out, enjoy a gentle, mid-summer stroll on Salisbury Plain. In essence we amble round the bounds of the World Heritage Site that surrounds Stonehenge. My plan is to take it easy and enjoy a lazy summer Sunday day out (so it’s bound to rain!)

Over 10 miles a series of surprisingly varied landscapes will reveal themselves. They deserve to be seen and better known in their own right. If you like open vistas and big skies, with the odd fine view across the Avon valley, this is the walk for you.

Plus the walk also comes with 5,500 years of history. Not only the ancient (including the Avenue, Woodhenge, Durrington Walls, Cursus and more barrows and burial mounds than you can poke a stick (or walking pole) at), but also the historical (the Battle of the Nile, early airfields and military railways, and Thomas Hardy) right up to the modern (New Age Travellers, orange dye, the legendary traffic jams on the A303 and, of course, Spinal Tap).
