We are the Tavistock Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A varied walk across open moorland, Devon countryside and alongside a peaceful reservoir. We’ll head across the open moorland of Chagford Common before leaving the moor to walk along the Two Moors and Mariners Way through Devon hamlets. From Frenchbeer Rock we’ll rejoin the moor to walk to Middle Tor and Thornworthy Tor before returning via Fernworthy Reservoir. Fabulous views if weather is clear. We’ll be stopping for coffee and later a lunch break so bring drinks and food. A lot of the route is on exposed moorland with no shade so bring plenty of water, hat, sunscreen etc in view of weather forecast.
Open moorland with some paths and tracks, some ups and downs (one ascent is a bit steep but short lived), stream crossing, boggy patch and several stiles.
Please book by text to walk leader. Please do not email.

Unmade car park on B3212. Coming from Tavistock it’s the third car park on the right after the Warren House Inn and is the car park after Bennett’s Cross. It’s slightly hidden from view until you reach it.
