Guided Walk – 11th April 2019

On Thursday 11th April I am leading another in my series of guided walks from the Wiltshire village of Pitton.

Time: Meet at the Silver Plough car park for a prompt 15.00 start.

Walk description:

This circular walk is just over seven miles and follows footpaths from Pitton through Houndwood to reach Bentley Wood.

The Silver Plough will be open for refreshments when we return.

Is this walk suitable for me?

  • The walk will cover approximately seven miles.
  • There are no stiles to climb.
  • There is a short steep ascent out of Pitton at the start of the walk.
  • There is a short steep descent back into Pitton at the end of the walk.
  • The route is mainly on footpaths and tracks, with a short road section at The Livery.
  • At this time of the year sections of the route might be muddy so please wear suitable footwear and be prepared for wet weather.

How long will it take?

  • Walking as a group means we walk at a pace suitable for all. You should allow about 3 hours.

Are dogs allowed?

  • Yes well-behaved dogs are allowed. But must be kept on a lead through woodland to protect ground nesting birds.
  • Please pick up after your dog!

How much will it cost?

There is no charge to join the walk.  But donations to my Walk 2,019 Miles Challenge in support of The Trussell Trust would be appreciated. My JustGiving page is  available here.

How do I join the walk?

Please let me know you are coming so I know how many to expect on the day.
