Overview

A walk along tracks through woods and quiet lanes returning along Blaxton Creek, through Blaxton Wood and alongside the River Tavy. If weather is good there will be lovely views across beautiful Devon countryside towards Tavy Bridge, Bere Ferrers and Kit Hill. 

Gradual ascent at start of walk. Likely to be muddy after rain. 

We’ll stop for a coffee break
