Overview

This walk starts in Ottery St Mary and makes its way through the town before heading out through the countryside on our way to the lovely village of Gittisham and then onward again to Fenny Bridges. We will return to the start following the river Otter.

This is a mostly moderate walk with a couple of quite long steep climbs. The ground is often wet and muddy so boots are definitely recommended.
