SUMMARY:Roaming Reflections: Post-Election Wildlife & Farming Future
DESCRIPTION:It is time to calm the mind and soul\nLet’s get out into the countryside. Listen to the birds and the bees\, and smell the summer aromas. \nThis is not a politically based outing. Nature is not political\, outside of humanity\, politics do not exist. But politics does unfortunately permeate everything that affects the countryside\, wildlife\, farming\, rural life and so forth. We have had weeks of campaigning after a non-stop conveyor belt of doom and gloom on the news. So\, let’s see if we can find some optimism\, things to agree on not disagree about\, aims and aspirations that we can work towards. \nWhat’s the agenda?\n \nThere is no agenda\, other than go for a walk. See and enjoy the good things out there and where the conversation takes us. \nI will start with the one immutable subject at the start of the walk\, a little overview of the geology of the vale\, and how that shapes the landscape. \nGeology is everything.  The plants and animals\, what can and can’t be farmed\, how the communications and populations developed leading to the landscape you see today. \nBeyond that\, let’s see where the conversation takes us. \nBesides my outline\, let’s hope for ancient customs and folk law\, regenerative farming\, hedge laying\, beer brewing\, vegetation management\, sarsen stones\, which cheese is best\, favourite flowers\, the smell of fresh hay\, and nice weather (no rain\, no heatwave). \nThe walk will be between 4 – 6 miles depending on how we feel on the day. If some want to go further\, and some want to cut it shorter we should be able to accommodate and split the group if needed. \n  \nYou can get an idea of the potential route on Outdoor Active (sorry no map here because it might get me in hot water with copyright issues). \nI would have done this walk a week earlier. However\, I am involved in the election count and will have worked a considerably long shift. I expect it to take me a day or two to get back in good order! \nIt will probably conclude in a public house for refreshment.

SUMMARY:Clear the mind and soul with Green Sketching with Emma from “A Little Piece of Wonder”
DESCRIPTION:Green Sketching\nA morning green sketching at the beautiful Jones’s Mill with Emma from Little Piece of Wonder. \nHave a few hours out and enjoy some mindful time in nature. \nWhat is Green Sketching?\nGreen sketching is a new approach to sketching nature designed to help you connect with nature and enhance your well-being. The focus of green sketching is on the process of observing and drawing nature\, not the creation of impressive artwork. \nIt’s an informal and fun approach; the aim is not to learn about nature but to use sketching as a tool to see\, enjoy and appreciate the beauty that’s all around us\, the beauty we so often miss when we’re rushing around or staring at our phones. Taking time to notice and appreciate nature’s beauty is important. It makes us feel good and it encourages us to take better care of the environment. \nWho can do it?\nSuitable for all ages and artistic abilities\, green sketching is about seeing and enjoying nature\, making it perfect for busy individuals looking for a mindful activity. No prior drawing skills are needed\, making it an inclusive activity for everyone. \nFor more information visit Green Sketching by Little Piece of Wonder. \nMake Green Sketching part of a day out or group activity\nIf you would like to make Green sketching part of a bigger day out for a group have a look at the information on Group Bookings or Contact Us to start a discussion.

SUMMARY:Join me on a  stroll in support of Sands
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a Stroll in the Vale of Pewsey\nI am taking on the walk 100k in September in support of the Sands charity. Join me for a scenic stroll in support of SANDS. Explore beautiful paths while raising awareness and funds for stillbirth and neonatal death charity. \nThis is not a formal guided walk or tour\, rather an invitation to join me for a Roam whilst doing a little segment of my 100K. \nHow far is it\nThis is only a segment\, and it’s not going to be a yomp up the hills.

This will be within the vale\, so no big hills to ascend. \nDo I need to pay?\nNo\, this is not a guided walk or talk\, just a wander about. So you will be fully responsible for your equipment\, etc. Don’t forget to bring your water & snacks\, plus appropriate clothing. \nDo I need to donate?\nNo. This is just an invitation to join me and hopefully meet a few other people who enjoy the countryside and being outdoors. \nWhere? When?\n10AM. Royal Oak\, Pewsey. Get there a bit earlier if you fancy a Breakfast or a beverage.  We can meet at the side entrance on the entry to the Car Park. \nWe will return to the Oak\, where Victuals will be available for purchase. \nQuestions?\nPlease feel free to Contact Me about this event only contact the Royal Oak regarding their food and drink offerings. \n

SUMMARY:Wiltshire Winter Warmer - Seasonal Soups\, Fresh air and log fires
DESCRIPTION:Embrace the Season\nUPDATE – Seasonal Soups has been Postponed – click for the next event.    The walk is going ahead\, but will be informal. \nJanuary can seem like the longest month of the year\, so here is a lifeline to help you through it.\nTake me to the tickets \nA mix-and-match collection of events is guaranteed to warm the cockles and put a spring in your step as we head towards spring. \nYour Choice: Two Events – Do One or Both\nTwo consecutive events – do either\, do both – it’s your choice. \nWalk – 10am – 12.15pm. Start with a cuppa and a hot sandwich at the Royal Oak. A 2 hour stroll about the local countryside and back to the pub. \nSoup – 12.30pm – 3.30pm. Enjoy unlimited amounts of fresh homemade seasonal soups. \nIn the morning\, enjoy a Wonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk\, and from lunchtime into the afternoon\, indulge in an unlimited feast of Seasonal Soups served with freshly baked local bread\, local butter\, West Country cheeses\, and The Royal Oak’s Triple Wiltshire Ham – all with roaring log fires in every room. \nWonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk\nWinter is a great time to explore the countryside and see things in a whole new way. I won’t lie – it can be chilly or damp\, and mud will be present. But there are also magnificent things to see. The land is far from dead; it’s merely resting\, ready for the explosion of new life in spring. \nIt’s a great time to understand what lies beneath: the geology and structure of the landscape\, the shape and power of trees with their skeletal forms naked in the winter wind\, and the places where animals live\, visible now that the verdant growth of summer is gone. \nThis is not a race or an effort to cover distance\, but rather an opportunity to be outside and connect with the natural world. Take time to look\, listen\, smell\, and think. \nStart and Finish: The walk begins at The Royal Oak with a hot drink and a bite to eat (hot sandwich or cake) and ends at the same place. \nA more detailed program will be published before the event. \nSuper Seasonal Soups\nEnjoy an unlimited feast of seasonal soups alongside plenty of local bread and butter\, hearty cheeses\, ham\, and other delicious accompaniments – all while warming yourself in front of a roaring fire. \nWhen it’s cold and chilly outside\, what better way to cheer yourself than with wholesome\, heart-warming food? With an emphasis on local\, regional\, and seasonal ingredients\, our soups are guaranteed to nourish and satisfy both body and soul. \nIt’s a perfect chance to catch up with friends or meet new people. While you toast yourself by the fire\, we’ll look ahead to the coming seasons. \nAccompany your soups with bread or sandwiches\, high-quality cheeses\, ham\, and other fillings of your choice. Then go back for seconds—or thirds! \nMore details on the soups will be available closer to the time. We’ll also email a quick poll to gather favourites and special requests. \nHow Does It Work?\nYou choose! \n\nDo the walk.\nEnjoy the soups.\nDo either – or do both!\n\nSee ticket options below. \nGet Your Ticket Now – Bring a Friend Along Too!\nGet your tickets now to guarantee a place.

DESCRIPTION:Embrace the Season\nJanuary can seem like the longest month of the year\, so here is a lifeline to help you through it.\nTake me to the tickets \nA mix-and-match collection of events is guaranteed to warm the cockles and put a spring in your step as we head towards spring. \nYour Choice: Two Events – Do One or Both\nTwo consecutive events – do either\, do both – it’s your choice. \nWalk – 10am – 12.15pm. Start with a cuppa and a hot sandwich at the Royal Oak. A 2 hour stroll about the local countryside and back to the pub. \nSoup – 12.30pm – 3.30pm. Enjoy unlimited amounts of fresh homemade seasonal soups. \nIn the morning\, enjoy a Wonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk\, and from lunchtime into the afternoon\, indulge in an unlimited feast of Seasonal Soups served with freshly baked local bread\, local butter\, West Country cheeses\, and The Royal Oak’s Triple Wiltshire Ham – all with roaring log fires in every room. \nWonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk\nWinter is a great time to explore the countryside and see things in a whole new way. I won’t lie – it can be chilly or damp\, and mud will be present. But there are also magnificent things to see. The land is far from dead; it’s merely resting\, ready for the explosion of new life in spring. \nIt’s a great time to understand what lies beneath: the geology and structure of the landscape\, the shape and power of trees with their skeletal forms naked in the winter wind\, and the places where animals live\, visible now that the verdant growth of summer is gone. \nThis is not a race or an effort to cover distance\, but rather an opportunity to be outside and connect with the natural world. Take time to look\, listen\, smell\, and think. \nStart and Finish: The walk begins at The Royal Oak with a hot drink and a bite to eat (hot sandwich or cake) and ends at the same place. \nA more detailed program will be published before the event. \nSuper Seasonal Soups\nEnjoy an unlimited feast of seasonal soups alongside plenty of local bread and butter\, hearty cheeses\, ham\, and other delicious accompaniments – all while warming yourself in front of a roaring fire. \nWhen it’s cold and chilly outside\, what better way to cheer yourself than with wholesome\, heart-warming food? With an emphasis on local\, regional\, and seasonal ingredients\, our soups are guaranteed to nourish and satisfy both body and soul. \nIt’s a perfect chance to catch up with friends or meet new people. While you toast yourself by the fire\, we’ll look ahead to the coming seasons. \nAccompany your soups with bread or sandwiches\, high-quality cheeses\, ham\, and other fillings of your choice. Then go back for seconds—or thirds! \nMore details on the soups will be available closer to the time. We’ll also email a quick poll to gather favourites and special requests. \nHow Does It Work?\nYou choose! \n\nDo the walk.\nEnjoy the soups.\nDo either – or do both!\n\nSee ticket options below. \nGet Your Ticket Now – Bring a Friend Along Too!\nGet your tickets now to guarantee a place.

SUMMARY:Accessible for All Tour - Getting to know your spring weeds
DESCRIPTION:An Evening botanical tour \nTake me to the tickets \nA high-quality\, fully guided walk\, with informative talk\,  in the beautiful vale of Pewsey.  \nExploration of the multitude of plants bursting into life. Spring is a magical time as life races into action after the winters hibernation. Who knows what we will see\, as every day brings something new. \nThis tour will be located completely within the village – you will be surprised at what is in plain sight! This tour is led by Walking Wiltshire. \nIs it for me?\nWe are trying to make this tour accessible to all. \nStarting in the Co-op car park we will head upstream along the River Avon. Crossing the road by the Co-op entrance\, passing by the heritage centre and along the river by Whatley Drive.  Then Crossing Broomcroft road and into the Scotchel. Depending on time available the tour will head towards Bucklease Mill where it will finish\, and we will head back to the Co-op car park – although some are planning on visiting the Royal Oak for refreshments. \nApart from entering the Scotchell by Broomcroft road\, and leaving by the railway embankment\, the route is reasonably level. The paths are reasonably wide\, although the bridge in the Scotchell is a little narrow. (I will measure this\, as it is wide enough for most Wheelchairs\, push chairs\, strollers and mobility scooters\, it may be too narrow for Trampers – I will find out).  Most surfaces are relatively smooth\, although there are a few lumpier bits in the Scotchell. Should be OK for most ambulant people even those with mobility restrictions\, with care.  Assistance with slopes can be provided (please contact me before had to ensure provision): if issues are encountered during the tour be assured assistance will be available. \nI have concerns…..\nDo please drop me a line.  I’m not going to claim that it is accessible for all – Contact me to discuss any concerns. I want to know what needs to be done to improve access to the countryside\, so your feedback is important. \nIf you have an assistant\, advocate or carer\, they can join for free. \nI can meet you before hand and cover the route if this is of assistance. \nWhat happens?\nMike from Walking Wiltshire will take you on a guided tour looking at the wonder of plants. Setting off from the car park it will not be long before something is seen worthy of investigation. Then cross the road towards the heritage centre and follow the river onward to the Scotchel\, the journey of discovery starts. The time is spent exploring the plants and their uses. Medicinal\, culinary and otherwise. Their history\, folk law and legends. Their environment\, and numerous other aspects of the plants seen on the day. \nA thoroughly enjoyable opportunity to discover the power of some of our most common\, and often unseen\, companions. \nYou have questions\nYou may still have questions or want to know more. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

Please feel free to message me with any suggestions of excellent produce you would like to see better known. \nBesides the crowd-pleaser of a massive block of Somerset mature cheddar\, there will be and array of Wiltshire\, Somerset and Dorset Cheeses.  Cheeses including Wiltshire Loaf\, Avebury (think Wiltshire Brie) and others from Brinkworth Dairy.  Dorset Red from Ford Farm\, Either or both Brie and Camembert from Cricket St. Thomas\, and many other\, confirmed nearer the date. \nAnd as always\, the award winning\, super local most amazing bread from Marshals Bakery.

SUMMARY:Half Term Special - Getting to know your spring weeds
DESCRIPTION:A botanical exploration for Children\nA spring walk for curious minds of all ages\nTake me to the tickets \n“Fillet of a fenny snake\,\nIn the cauldron boil and bake.\nEye of newt and toe of frog\,\nWool of bat and tongue of dog\,” \n  \nWhat really went into the lotions and potions of olden times? \nJoin us for a family-friendly journey of discovery\, where imagination\, folklore and real plants come together. Spring is the moment when the countryside bursts back into life — and almost every plant you see has a story to tell. Some were used for healing\, some for food\, some for magic\, and some… best left alone. \nEver wondered what “eye of newt” actually was? You might be surprised. \nA walk that fascinates children — and adults too\nLed by Mike Atkinson-Willis of Walking Wiltshire\, this gentle village walk is designed to spark curiosity in children while offering plenty to interest adults. Mike brings deep knowledge of plants\, their traditional uses\, folklore\, and history\, presented in an engaging\, accessible way that invites questions and conversation. \nThis is not a lecture — it’s a shared exploration. Expect stories\, surprises\, and moments of discovery hiding in plain sight. \nEach child will receive a simple spotter guide to help identify some of the plants we encounter. \nWhat to expect\nSpring is unpredictable — and that’s part of the magic. Every walk is different. We’ll explore whatever is putting on its best show that day\, learning how plants have been used for: \n\nmedicine\nfood and flavouring\nhousehold uses\nfolklaw\, legend and belief\n\nAll within the village itself — proving just how much nature is woven into everyday places. \nRoute and accessibility\nThe walk starts outside the Pewsey Heritage Centre and follows the River Avon upstream\, crossing Broomcroft Road into the Scotchel. Time permitting\, we may continue towards Buckleaze Mill before returning. \n\nSuitable for most children\nPushchairs\, prams and strollers should be manageable\nNot suitable for scooters or bikes (this is a slow amble)\nThe route follows the river — it is safe\, but adult supervision is essential\n\nAll children must be accompanied by an adult and remain their responsibility throughout. \nIs it right for you?\nWe aim to be inclusive\, but we won’t claim this walk suits everyone. \nIf you have questions about access\, mobility\, or suitability\, please get in touch — we’re very happy to talk things through. If you have an assistant\, advocate or carer\, they are welcome to attend free of charge (contact us after booking). \nWhere helpful\, we can also meet in advance to walk the route together. \nYour feedback helps us improve access to the countryside for everyone. \nOn the day\nMike from Walking Wiltshire leads the walk\, with Roaming the Paths providing support. \nWe’ll move at a relaxed pace\, stopping often — because it won’t take long before something catches the eye and deserves closer inspection. \n\nBook your place for a thoroughly enjoyable spring walk — and discover the hidden power of some of our most common\, and often overlooked\, plant companions. \n\n
