A guided full-day walk through the Avebury Neolithic landscape, taking in the stone circle, West Kennet Avenue, Silbury Hill, West Kennet Long Barrow, and Swallowhead Spring.

Join thousands for the annual open-access summer solstice sunrise gathering at Stonehenge. The stones are opened from the evening of June 20th through the morning of the 21st, allowing visitors to stand among the megaliths as the sun rises over the Heel Stone. This is a rare chance to experience the monument without barriers — a living continuation of a tradition stretching back over four millennia.

The session covers composition techniques for ancient monuments, working with dawn light, and using long exposures. Suitable for all camera types including smartphones.

An evening of traditional storytelling around a fire pit, drawing on tales from the Mabinogion, Arthurian legend, and regional folk tradition. Myths of the Green Man, the Wild Hunt, and the fairy folk are woven together in a setting that recalls the oldest form of community gathering. Hot cider and mead available.
An illustrated evening lecture on the astronomical alignments of the Callanish Standing Stones. The talk focuses on the 18.6-year lunar standstill cycle and its relationship to the stone avenue and circle. Followed by stargazing at the stones, weather permitting. Booking essential.
