Fair enough.

I was thinking of the whole of the Ridgeway route.


Yes, just thought it might confuse as most info online etc on the 'ridgeway' won't mention it!
But yeah, would be incredible to walk from Dorset up to Wash.


Your right. I hadn't thought about it.

I have always seen Avebury as being on it's route not the destination.


Well that is correct it's just that only the stretch between the Sanctuary and Ivanhoe Beacon has been 'Nationalised'.


My understanding is that the Ridgeway route starts in the Wash and runs to Dorset, taking in Avebury, Marden and Stonehenge.

Makes a lot of sense to me. A major route attracting 'Attractions' on it's way.


Aye. I think the "new" great stones way between avebury and Stonehenge might be along the route? So basically an "official" continuation of the ridgeway path, but just under a diff name.
