Location Info
Great Ridge Wood sits on the Wiltshire–Dorset border and forms part of an ancient woodland ridge. It includes mature broadleaf trees, woodland rides, and long-established paths.
Terrain follows the limestone ridge, giving it steady, gentle slopes. Surfaces are mainly compacted earth, chalk-based paths, and occasional gravelled sections where maintenance has been carried out.
