Wessex Ridgeway

The Wessex Ridgeway is a long distance footpath in England. It runs 219 kilometers from Marlborough in Wiltshire to Lyme Regis in Dorset via the edge of Salisbury Plain and Cranbourne Chase. The footpath was opened in 1994. It is one of four long distance footpaths which, when combined, run from Lyme Regis to Hunstanton and are referred to as the Greater Ridgeway.
