Fyfield and Devils Den is a 4.9 mile moderately trafficked loop trail located near Marlborough, Wiltshire, England that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking, nature trips, and bird watching and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
This burial chamber was reconstructed in 1921. The Devil's Den is what is left of a neolithic passage grave on Fyfield Down. Two standing stones, a capstone and two fallen stones are all that remain of what was the entrance to a long mound, described in the 1920s as being around 230 ft long and 17 tons in weight.
January 16, 2021Great route much enjoyed it! Only thing is there is now a fence about half way through this route that cuts off the path it wants you to take. This means you either walk back on yourself or a lot further on other wise it was fine.

November 19, 2020It's a good route with lots of open countryside, lovely cows, not too muddy. However, a section close to the car park (just after the tomb when walking anti clockwise) cuts between two rights of way across a farmer's field without right of way. He was quite irritated and asked that we note this.
September 5, 2020August 22, 2020The initial path along the race tracks was a bit dull, but once you got up to the woods and then onto the downs it was just beautiful. The rivers of stones were pretty awe inspiring and the devil’s den was the cherry on the top of a beautiful (windy) walk.
August 22, 2020We really enjoyed this walk and the history of the surrounding area. It was fun navigating the massive herd of cows twice, however they were more scared of is than we were of them. There was a massive bull in 1 of the fields.
July 25, 2020Second half was quite over grown but was a lovely walk.

February 22, 2020This is one of the best walks I've been on in this area so far, felt at times like you were in the Yorkshire hills with all the rocks and stones, beautiful views...very windy but invigorating
