Overview

A lovely walk following lanes, footpaths and bridlepaths to explore a hilly but beautiful part of Mid-Devon. Starting at Bickleigh Bridge and the River Exe, the walk goes to the village of Cadeleigh, where, we may be able to see the fascinating Simon Leach memorial inside the church. We make our way to Little Silver while enjoying magnificent views, and return via the River Dart, passing a heronry on the way.
