Overview

A hike through fields and over moorland, via some Dartmoor landmarks incorporating a slightly different tea break. Includes a few short, sharpish ascents, through one lane that can be particularly muddy, and crossing over the main A386 twice.

We will stop for coffee break at the Brentor Village Hall for refreshments - bacon rolls and cakes available - cash and card accepted. Usual lunch stop later for more fuel!
