My Country Walks



Welcome to my new blog following my move to the Cotswolds in early 2018.

Previously living on the edge of Dartmoor I shared details of my walks on Dartmoor on my previous blog My Dartmoor Walks. As I explore this new area I will share details of the routes here.

Tuesday 4th July 2023 - Return to Dartmoor

A walk with my old friends up to High Willhays, the highest point on Dartmoor. Around Longstone Hill to follow the valley for the Red-a-ven brook and then up to West Mill Tor. On to Yes Tor, High Willhays and returning past Black Tor. 8 miles with 1400 feet of ascent. A very heavy shower at the start followed by a dry spell and then the rain came in! Waterproofs on for the whole walk. A proper Dartmoor walk with proper Dartmoor weather!
