Monday April 10, 2006 Imber Ranges to open to the public.

All military activity is suspended over Easter.
The tarmac roads to Imber Village from Bratton, Gore Cross, Heytesbury and Warminster will be open to the public from 6.00 pm on Thursday 13 April until 6.00 pm Monday 17 April. Please be aware that these roads are 'poor' tarmac and have some pot holes, so care needs to be taken. However, they are suitable for 'normal' cars and the trip is well worth making.

All other tracks, stone tracks and the Southern Range Road remain closed (Out of Bounds) in accordance with the Bylaws. Movement off of the 'opened' roads is forbidden and trespassers liable to prosecution.

There is, of course, a difference between the roads listed above, definitive legal rights of way (which you are entitled to use) and the 'permissive' rights of way listed above.

One final point. If you do venture onto the ranges DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING you may find laying about, it may kill or seriously injure you!!
