Stonehenge Question

[Lovincruisin1321]

Having hip issues and Princess Excursion states, "30-minute walk to site".    I was on the Stonehenge website and there are shuttle rides from the Visitor Centre to the stones.  

Wondering if the "30-minute walk" is to the Visitor Centre.

 

Can someone clarify this for me?   I would like to not stress over this and enjoy this visit.    No, a wheel chair is not an option.   

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

Princess' phraseology is grossly misleading.😟

 

Less than a 2-minute walk from coach drop-off point to entrance / visitor centre. From there an almost-continuous free shuttle  to the Stones.

Yes, alternatively you can walk in about 25- 30 minutes - some do, most don't.

(zoom out to see the Stones.)

 

I wonder how many folk are needlessly dissuaded by Princess' "30-minutes walk"🙄

PS Your coach will drop you by the entrance to the coach park. Be sure that you can recognise the same coach when you return, because it will be parked-up in  line of coaches

Visitor centre, seen from coach park. Pan right to the coach drop-off point and the parked-up coaches beyond

We went to Stonehenge this summer and John Bull's reply is spot on.

When Going to England, Stonehenge is a must in my opinion
