Walking the White Horses: Wiltshire's White Horse Trail on Foot (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798864360187)

The heart-warming account of a father and son's journey of self discovery on foot around their own home county.

David Clensy sets off on a long walk - seeking to tackle the 93 miles of Wiltshire's White Horse Trail, joined in the adventure by his wide-eyed 10-year-old son, Charlie.

The reader is taken on a lyrical meander through the natural wonders of southern England's chalk downland environment, its people, heritage and wildlife. Along the way we explore the story of these striking equine hill figures and the role they have played in the cultures, belief systems and lived experiences of locals across the centuries.

There are eight White Horses still visible in the Wiltshire landscape today - Westbury, Devizes, Cherhill, Broad Town, Hackpen, Marlborough, Pewsey and Alton Barnes. The 93-mile walk takes in them all.
