Visit Wiltshire Visitor Guide 2023

Live Escape
The Arc
Treasure Trails
Sign up for a Salisbury Plain Safari and sit back as their iconic
Land Rover Defender transports you to far flung parts of the
Wiltshire landscape, hidden places inaccessible to many other
vehicles. Take spectacular views of Europe’s largest expanse of
chalk downland... throw in some rutted tracks, deep puddles and
bumpy roads... add a splash or two of mud and you have all the
makings of an expedition to write home about.
Prefer your activities wet and wild? Then head to the Cotswold
Water Park for canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing,
swimming, wakeboarding, waterskiing and windsurfing. Or for
an (almost) A-Z of activities, join Wiltshire Outdoor Learning
Team to experience abseiling, archery, axe throwing, bush craft
canoeing, crossbows, high ropes, kayaking, laser tag, mountain
biking, orienteering, raft building, stand-up paddle boarding, a
Tarzan tree top trail, zip wires and more!
For fitness fans and lovers of the great outdoors Wiltshire offers
plenty of extreme sporting events to take part in too. Half and
full marathons, horse trials, cycling sportives, epic canoe races –
there are no limits, other than your own endurance.
For those who get a kick out of racing against the clock, real
life escape games have taken the world by storm. Faced with
an array of puzzles, riddles and clues, your team has to work
swiftly to solve the mystery and escape from captivity. Unique,
interactive challenges are offered by Live Escape Salisbury
and Salisbury Escape
Rooms. So choose
your favourite theme
and start sleuthing. But
don’t forget, for each
challenge you have only
one hour, and time is
fast running out...
Treasure hunts are
another great way to have fun with friends and family.
Treasure Trails offer challenges in over 20 locations around
Wiltshire – just download a self-guided booklet and set out on
your expedition. Your mission: to find and solve intriguing clues
on buildings, statues and monuments, revealing fascinating
history and stunning scenery along the way.
In Salisbury you can find your way around the fun way with
Text Quest. As its name suggests, you receive a text with
directions and a clue. Reply with the right answer and you
receive the next clue. Pit your wits against other teams. Aim
for a personal best. Or just amble round at your own pace,
enjoying the sights. However you play it, it’s time to channel
your inner Holmes and Watson.
