A quality morning out with a botanical tour
A high-quality, fully guided morning walk, with informative talk, in the beautiful vale of Pewsey.
Morning – Exploration of the multitude of plants bursting into life. The tour is similar to Wandering by Water by Walking Wiltshire and is led by Walking Wiltshire.
Briefing
There will be a briefing on the days’ activities, and an equipment check (please remember to bring suitable attire for the weather, snacks and a drink. The drink is essential).
Morning Tour
Distance – 2.3 Miles. Terrain – gentle gradients, some steps, boardwalks, and possible mud. Starting at 10:10 and lasting about 2 hours 45.
From there Mike from Walking Wiltshire will take you on a guided tour looking at the wonder of plants. Setting off immediately into the countryside and onward to Jones’s Mill Nature Reserve, the journey of discovery starts. The morning 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.
In recognition of the amazing work done by the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust, £4.00 of the ticket price is donated to Wiltshire Wildlife Trust to help them with their work.
A thoroughly enjoyable opportunity to discover the power of some of our most common, and often unseen, companions.
