Stonehenge, Salisbury Plains and the North Wessex Downs, all drag visitors to Wiltshire. But the angling visitor comes for rivers, the River Kennet, a classic chalk stream which rises on the Marlborough Downs near Silbury Hill, the Bristol Avon which flows west to the Bristol Channel, and the Hampshire Avon which rises in the Vale of Pewsey and carves its way through Salisbury Plain.

Wiltshire is also home to the Kennet and Avon Canal which runs for nearly 100 miles from Bristol to London.
