Route description
Because of the concerns raised over the road section in Wilsal1, I have compiled and walked this route. I recorded it at 6.43 mi, so about a mile further. It follows the same start from Wilton up to Home Farm Rd, where it virtually immediately turns right through a metal kissing gate, and then travels upwards across Warren Down, and Hare Warren, on clear paths and tracks. It emerges at the Salisbury Racecourse. The route then follows the Old Shaftsbury Drove track, all the way to Harnham Slope. Having crossed the Harnham Rd, it follows the same route into Salisbury as Wilsal1. This route has 1 kissing gate, and 3 stiles.This route cuts out the questionable road section between Home Farm Rd, and the A3094.
