Join us for these walks to watch the Moon rise over the Stonehenge landscape*. We've timed them for a day or two before Full Moon so that the moonrise happens before Stonehenge closes for the night.

Your guide for this experience is a local historian and astronomer who has spent the last 15 years researching Stonehenge and its surrounding area.

He has an in-depth understanding of the solar and lunar alignment theories as well as a passion for the archaeology and history of the World Heritage Site.

We'll rendezvous at the Stonehenge Visitor Centre for a brief orientation of the available facilities and to collect our tickets before seeing the exhibition and the reconstructed neolithic huts.
Then we'll take a short shuttle bus ride down to the Fargo Wood drop off point where we'll being our exploration of the landscape.

The route from Fargo Wood takes us past the Cursus Barrow group - a superb collection of Bronze Age burial mounds containing spectacular grave goods - and then eastwards along a stretch of the Cursus, an enigmatic monument over a mile and three quarters in length which dates back 5,500 years.

We'll walk down to the bottom of the valley where the Avenue begins its final climb up the slope towards Stonehenge and then make our approach to the monument the same way the ancestors did
.
After passing through the monument entrance gate we'll walk around the outside of the stone circle and talk about the history of Stonehenge and the latest discoveries and theories.

We'll then position ourselves to watch the Moon rise through the stone circle (weather dependent, of course). As night falls we'll take the shuttle back to the Visitor Centre in time for some souvenir shopping and a well-earned hot drink in the cafe before we say farewell.

This tour will take approximately 4 hours and the total walking distance is about 3 miles across fields and along paths. Please wear suitable clothing and sensible footwear and remember that the weather on Salisbury Plain is unpredictable.

* We've timed them for a day or two before Full Moon so that the moonrise happens
