Overview

Clearbrook Canter

This will be a brisk 8 mile walk to whet our appetites before the tradition mass packed lunch and carol singing gathering (with orchestra), now a Plymouth Ramblers tradition.  There will be a shorter, slower walk alternative.

We shall walk from Clearbrook to Buckland Monachorum and then on to Buckland Abbey and back to Clearbrook village hall for carols and conviviality with a roof!

There are numerous stiles, uneven ground and mud pretty well guaranteed for this walk.

Christmas jumpers and hats welcomed.
