The Ridgeway: Hike the 5,000-year-old pathway that's Britain's oldest road
Link
📌 Summary: The Ridgeway is a 87-mile prehistoric trackway that cuts across the chalk hills of southern England. It has been in use for at least 5,000 years and is widely recognised as Britain's oldest road. The path is littered with Neolithic burial mounds, Iron Age hill forts, and other historical features. The Ridgeway is a designated National Trail and offers spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
🎯 Key Points:
The Ridgeway has been in use for at least 5,000 years and is widely recognised as Britain's oldest road.
The path cuts diagonally across the chalk downs of southern England, linking Overton Hill in Wiltshire with Ivinghoe Beacon in Buckinghamshire.
The Ridgeway is part of a much longer trading route that once connected the coasts of Dorset and Norfolk.
The path is littered with Neolithic burial mounds, Iron Age hill forts, and other historical features.
The Ridgeway is a designated National Trail and offers spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
The path is dotted with sloping pastures and designated public bridleways for horse riders.

'Ridgeway trail: Land Rover driver denies dangerous driving'
'The Ridgeway, which runs through the North Wessex Downs, is renowned as one of England's most beautiful sites. It is Britain’s oldest road and follows the same route over the high ground used since prehistoric times by travellers, herdsmen and soldiers. It runs for 87 miles through several counties including Berkshire and Wiltshire.'

This is a song about earthquakes...

Today I went #hiking along the #Ridgeway 😀 I managed to go 13 miles, though it was a really hard slog at the end!
I went past Wayland's Smithy, #Uffington Castle, and a LOT of hedgerows ... here's a little thread of photos I took:1) Wayland's Smithy

If, like me, you're struggling in the relentless heat of the Glorious British Summertime and counting the days until blessed autumn, perhaps this will help you think cool thoughts for a moment's respite.
Taken exactly 6 months ago on the Ridgeway near White Horse Hill and Wayland's Smithy ❄️

I went on a mini-hike today with an old friend from uni, along part of the #Ridgeway, walking North from Swyncombe Church. It was glorious! The church was lovely, too, but I didn’t snap any photos inside. #hiking #walking #TheRidgeway #oxfordshire #england #countryside #nature
