About the event
Facilitated by a team of passionate and experienced Eco-TA professionals : Helen Blackburn, Mary Dees, Sarah Devine, Rebecca Elston and Andy Williams, the journey will be slow-paced, and you will be invited to take part in various Eco-TA activities along the way.
These activities invite personal reflection on the landscape and our relationship to the “more-than-human.” Eco-TA is non-intrusive, so on this introductory day, nothing will be too demanding, and participation will be totally voluntary.
Our Route
Our journey begins in the shadow of the Ridgeway, ‘Britain’s oldest road,’ a path once trodden by travellers, herdsmen, and warriors long before recorded history. This ancient highway, still following the high ridges of the land, whispers of forgotten lives and secrets lost to the ages.
Activity Level
The walk is pretty level throughout the day, with some hills. The ground underfoot can be muddy in parts, we will be crossing agricultural land at times which may be uneven. We will walk approximately six miles during the day, with a late lunch stop and toilets at Avebury.
Tickets
The day costs £50 per person. Full refunds will be available until 1st March 2025.
