Overview

An interesting walk along the John Musgrave Way from Brixham to Totnes.  2000ft of climb, mainly well used tracks.  The walk involves a ferry at Greenway Quay and we will have coffee in the Greenway national Trust cafe. We will pass through Dittisham, Cornworthy, Tuckenhay and Ashprington on the way to Totnes. 

I plan to catch the 8.35 train from Plymouth station.  We change at Newton Abbot for the 9.26 from Newton Abbot to Torre.  We then catch the No 12 bus to Brixham.  At the end of the walk there are many trains from Totnes to Plymouth.
