We are the Exeter and District Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This 5-mile short, moderate walk will incorporate some of Okehampton’s local history, in Simmons Park, Ball Hill, Fatherford, East Hill, Klondyke Corner, Okehampton Station, the Okehampton Castle and return.
This walk is part of the Devon Area Members Day. We will assemble from 10:00 am at the London Inn, Okehampton.
There will be three walks (10.5 miles, 8 miles and 5 miles) offered by the Exeter & District Group all starting at 10.30 am and then finishing back at the London Inn.
Okehampton has public transport connections, rail links from Exeter and bus services from several places. Parking is in local car parks which are pay and display, there is nearby on-street parking which will require a short walk.
The London Inn has offered us the use of an upstairs room, where we may leave stuff during the day whilst walking. There is no charge for the hire of the room, but they expect us to order food/ drink from the bar. There will be free tea and coffee available from a machine at the entrance.
