Activities

A key feature of Wiltshire Walks is that all Guided Walks can be based around a particular theme or activity.  Activities include:

• Photography
• Flora & Fauna
• Veteran and Ancient Trees and Tree ‘aging’
• Ornithology
• Fox & Badger Watching
• Etymology
• Archaeology
• History/Pre-History
• Map Reading & Compass Work
• Fruit and Nut collection (the area is a wine makers paradise!), mushrooms in the Autumn.......
• Architecture
• Meteorology
• Divining - around three-quarters of the population can successfully dowse for ‘ley-lines’ using simple metal rods, or a traditional Hazel forked stick.
• Historic Milestones of the area
• Our own ‘mini’ Geocaching and Treasure Hunts

If time and the weather permits, some evening activities may be organised:

• Bat Detecting - Marlborough and the surrounding area has several Bat ‘sites’.
• Dowsing or Divining
• Short Guided Walks around Marlborough and local Villages.
• Photography around Marlborough and local Villages
• Astronomy
• Eating Out
• Owl/Fox/Badger watching
• Tree ‘aging’
• Treasure Hunts
• ‘Mainstream’ Geocaching - see here for more details

You will be asked about your hobbies and interests when submitting an Enquiry Form to us - we will then attempt to arrange for a particular Theme based around those activities chosen by the majority of walkers.
