avatarRen A2 weeks agoStunning place. You can do as much or as little walking as you wish. Gets busier on weekends.
avatarMichael Scott Connolly4 years agoAvebury Ridgeway National Trail provides a great track for overlooking the sites and countryside around West Kennet area, including Bronze Age Barrows on hilltops. The trails terminating/starting point at The Sanctuary on the A4 has a small parking area across the road, which is also handy for visiting East Kennett.
avatarMaxwell Goodwin4 weeks agoGreat trail winding through Wiltshire countryside
