Julian Cope presents Head Heritage

Hi folks,

My wife and I are hoping to make a long-dreamed of trip to England around mid-March and are thinking of hiking the Ridgeway National Trail. It's my understanding that it includes Avebury along the way, and is purportedly the oldest track in Britain. Having studied Britain's megalithic heritage from a distance all these years, we are terribly excited to finally have a chance to visit a select few in person. The trail sounds like a perfect way to experience this ancient landscape.

Has anyone here hiked the path in part or in whole? Any advice, opinions or suggestions would be most appreciated. Also, what can we expect weather-wise in mid to late March?

Thanks very much in advance...

Z.
