Lovely walk to get to the cliffs. Once you have reached the top there is a lovely view of Salisbury

4/ 5

Lovely walk to get to the cliffs. Once you have reached the top there is a lovely view of Salisbury and the Salisbury cathedral. There is a bit of litter about though, and people have created a biking area with bike jumps.
