Overview

At the start, there will be  a slight climb to Sourton Tor, where we will continue on paths and tracks on the open moorland with excellent views.

On route to Sourton Tor, you will pass Sourton Ice Works (with exceptional views), before turning left to walk along the railway track towards Great Links Tor. At Nodden Gate, you have a choice of stepping stones or a bridge, before climbing a stile, and walking back towards the Fox and Hounds, and crossing the main road down to the Granite Way cycle track, and back to the start.
