Overview

We begin by heading north from Hemyock to the Wellington monument, where there might be a chance of coffee and cake. Next, we head west, following paths through woods and then south through fields to summit Culmstock beacon. We then follow a path downwards steeply before following paths across fields and a disused railway back to Hemyock. Part of the walk will be along the side of a road, but the majority uses paths and minor roads.
