We are the Exeter and District Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
John H.
The walk will visit Rippon Tor, Blackslade Ford, Pil Tor and Top Tor. Along the way we will see examples of the stone cutters work, an incised cross and an abandoned cross, unfinished mill stones, and archaeological remains, including a kist, medieval long house and the Foale’s Arrishes settlement. There will be two short steepish ascents and then descents, and the walk will be on moorland paths.
Walk in association with Dartmoor Preservation Association.
Booking essential as there will be mince pies provided at the start of the walk and we might visit a pub or cafe after the walk.
