Meet at Pewsey Station (8.35 train from Paddington. 9.02 at Reading if using the Elizabeth line. Allow plenty of time in getting to Paddington or Reading as the next train is 2 hours later). The train both ways could be very full with many seats reserved

This is a joint walk with Wiltshire Group
A very full day with a long & hilly walk in the Pewsey Downs using sections of the White Horse Trail, Wansdyke path, Sarsen Way, Ridgeway, Tan hill & the jewel of the Avebury Stone Circle. We will see few people in the lovely hills & then expect to find crowds at one of the most famous tourist sites in the country
Finish at Pewsey to catch the 19.23 return arriving Paddington 20.27

Picnic stops only. Bring adequate supplies. There will be an extended lunch break in Avebury to allow sufficient time to appreciate the unique stone circle & take lots of selfies! Avebury has toilets shops, cafes, pub; supplies can be topped up here; expect queues everywhere. Moderate pace (very moderate in the hilly sections) If intending to come please notify the walk leader by Text message/WhatsApp, in advance if possible but even on the morning of the walk it is fine
