Silbury Hill

Silbury picnic

Two summers ago I walked from a white horse in the area (one of the smaller ones, can't recall the name--starts with an "H" I think--Higpen?) to West Kennet. About seven miles; a nice walk! Spent a lot of time exploring the Greywethers...very magical spot.

I do want to walk the whole thing at some point. My trip over in a few days won't allow me the time (but I will be in London, Glastonbury, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and to the Rollrights for a couple days apiece!) but I hope to do a pilgrimage walk, the whole track, all at once next time I visit. In the fall if I can afford it, but more likely next summer...

BTW, I will probably miss solstice eve at the Rollrights, but will be there Monday the 24th for the full moon/lunar eclipse! If anyone's around...stop by! I'll be playing warden with the summer resident wardens there for a night or two.
