A level walk along the canal east wards, then cross country to the foot of the downs. A short stiff climb onto the chalk escarpment is rewarded by spectacular views east arriving above the white horse. Returning on ancient drovers tracks to Pewsey.
The route is planned to be taken clockwise.

This was a good walk, the only slightly disappointing part would have to be the approach up on to Pewsey downs, that being barbed wire with no access point. The barbed wire has been manipulated so as to get through ( not sure if farmer will be happy with that?) The views up on the downs are superb and there is a bench to sit on just before approach to white horse, just incase you want lunch whilst enjoying the scenery. Nashy
