Overview

We walk from Sticklepath to South Zeal, then up to the Cosdon stone row, where we have a coffee stop. The walk continues uphill to the top of Cosdon Hill, where there are wonderful views. From there it's downhill to Belstone, and back to Sticklepath along Belstone Cleave and the River Taw. 

Typical Dartmoor walk - rough paths, wet underfoot, ups and downs. Short section of road at the start.

Please text walk leader if you wish to join the walk
