Walk through the heart of England's chalk landscapes on the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way, two connected long-distance paths forming part of the Great Chalk Way. The 79km Sarsen Way runs from Coate Water Park near Swindon to Salisbury, while the 28km Cranborne Droves Way continues south to join the Wessex Ridgeway at Win Green. Together, these historic routes follow ancient trackways across downland, farmland, and prehistoric landscapes shaped by sarsen stones and centuries of human movement. Suitable for walkers of all abilities, both routes can be comfortably completed within a week. The walks pass through villages and historic sites, including Chiseldon, Avebury, Durrington, Amesbury, Old Sarum, and Salisbury, with frequent opportunities to explore Neolithic monuments, Iron Age earthworks, and cathedral cities. The Sarsen Way is presented in 6 stages of between 10.5km and 19.3km, plus three additional variant loops, while the Cranborne Droves Way is presented in 2 stages (17.3km and 10.7km). 8 stage-by-stage route descriptions covering the Sarsen Way from Coate Water Park to Salisbury and the Cranborne Droves Way to Win Green on the Wessex Ridgeway. Reverse route descriptions provided for both the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way, allowing you to plan in either direction along each route. Clear step-by-step directions for both the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way, with 1:50,000 Ordnance Survey mapping for accurate navigation across chalk downland and rural paths. Each stage on the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way includes distance, walking time, ascent, terrain notes, and information on key places such as Swindon, Avebury, Durrington, Old Sarum, and Salisbury. Comprehensive planning information, with notes on archaeological sites, historic landmarks, and points of interest along both the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way sections of the Great Chalk Way. Downloadable GPX files for both the Sarsen Way and Cranborne Droves Way make it easy to follow your chosen route using GPS devices or smartphone apps.
