Overview

From Belstone the walk follows the River Taw to Sticklepath, then along the Tarka Trail to South Tawton. We then walk along lanes to Ramsey Hill near South Zeal, then uphill to the moor.

A varied walk with beautiful views. Typical Dartmoor walk, wet underfoot in places, uphills, downhills and rough paths. Some road walking. 

Option for refreshments at the Tors pub afterwards. 

Please text or email leader if you wish to join the walk.
