Hullavington Ramblers Walk
Sunday Oct 15th
The walk is organised by
Alan Roberts and he advises that the lunch time pub only serves
Sunday Lunches at £7.95p. But there is a beer garden and the weather forecast is
good, so you may want to bring your own lunch.
Meet & Park: 10:00am at
the Small Grain picnic area 2 miles from Calne
Directions: From Chippenham take A4
through Calne. On Leaviing town enter the 40mph zone, take next right turning
signposted to Bishops Canings. When almost at top of hills, turn sharp left
into picnic area (small sign, easy to miss). If you reach the golf club on
right, you have gone too far
Details of walk: Spectacular circular walk
of 9 miles. Initially undulating along the Wansdyke (ancient Saxon earthwork)
which runs along the edge of the Marlborough Downs. Then descend to the Kennet &
Avon canal at Horton and along canal to Bishops Cannings . After lunch a short
sharp ascent to regain the high ground of the Wansdyke. A slightly more
challenging walk than usual, but well worth the extra effort for the scenic
views of this beautiful area
Lunch stop: The Crown Inn, Bishops
Cannings
