Overview

Walk from Bennett’s Cross towards Fernworthy. A moorland walk on tracks and paths and a bit of walking through the trees at Fernworthy, with stone rows and hut circles. Hopefully the heather will be out and the moor will be looking lovely.

Option for refreshment afterwards at Warren House Inn.

Dogs on leads around livestock. Book by text to walk leader.
