"WESSEX WANDERERS" PROGRAMME 2005

Our regular summer series of Guided Walks, devised and led by experienced local leaders from the Ramblers' Association provides a great opportunity to discover the real "Heart of Wessex". Enjoy convivial, like-minded company as your guide shows you the the most seductive and fascinating routes into our countryside, villages and towns. The 32 different walks are all free - all you need is your train ticket to the destination shown in the details. Good footwear and protective clothing are a must, however, and we regret that dogs are not allowed. Please bring a picnic lunch where stated.
