Overview

After leaving Manaton car park and church we make a short steep ascent to Manaton Rocks, then on via Neasdon and Langstone to Easdon Down and Tor. We continue our journey via Old Yarde, North Bovey, and Foxworthy to make our return to Manaton.

Ups and downs, some steep. Lanes, paths, rough tracks and some open moorland. Good views in fine weather.
