Overview

This walk I believe is the best way to see Burrator reservoir and surrounding area, with fantastic views on a good day. We will see four caves (perhaps a bonus cave). Walking on mainly tracks and some open moorlands and woods. This walk will be done at a leisurely pace to admire the views. Free car park
