The Wiltshire Landscape walking challenge consists of a series of twelve walks which take you to all of the National Trust sites cared for by the Wiltshire Landscape team.
You'll get to visit some wonderful places, including Figsbury Ring, White Barrow, Dinton Park, Windmill Hill at Avebury, Cley Hill, The Coombes at Hinton Parva, Stonehenge Landscape, Piggledene, Sutton Lane Meadows, Calstone and Cherhill Down, Lockeridge Dene and Pepperbox Hill (scroll through the images above or go to www.nationaltrust.org.uk/wiltshire-landscape to see these special places).
The walks range between approx 4 and 10 miles each and follow national footpaths, public rights of way, bridleways, byways, and are all partially, but not completely, on National Trust land.
All those completing the challenge before 31 December 2019 can enter a prize draw, the lucky winner will receive a £300 Cotswold Outdoor voucher. To enter, participants must purchase a Wiltshire Landscape Walking Challenge pack and take a 'selfie' of themselves on each walk to prove that they have completed it. (Note: when you book through the website it gives various dates - this is a glitch in the system - please ignore it, the end date is 31/12/2019 and you have from the date you book until then to complete the challenge).
The walking challenge packs cost £12 and you'll receive twelve printed walks, a handy map holder and instructions on how to enter the competition, as well as a voucher for a free hot drink at Avebury. Click here to sign up now.
We hope that you enjoy the walking challenge.
(Terms and conditions can be found via the link below.)
Please note: As parts of these routes follow land that is not owned and maintained by the National Trust, we cannot guarantee that they will be as well maintained as we would hope. All the walks were tested and were good condition in the winter and spring of 2018 and we will continue to monitor them; should you encounter any problems please let us know via wiltshire.countryside@nationaltrust.org.uk.
Dogs are welcome on ALL the walks, as long as they are kept on a lead, under control and on the route indicated on the map. (The Stonehenge Landscape walk states that dogs are not allowed - however although they are banned in some areas of the landscape, they ARE allowed on this particular walk).
Can you 'Walk for the Wall'?
