This is a charming and varied downland walk from Avebury to Marlborough.  At the start it is planned to visit the Neolithic stone circle at Avebury, and then to continue up onto the Marlborough Downs and to cross the Ridgeway at Overton Down, and then via the Sarsen stones at Fyfield Down and past horse gallops and into Marlborough, where refreshments will be available.   avebury
