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

Meet opposite the Fox & Hounds pub at 0945 to catch the 0952 bus to Okehampton and walk back.
From Okehampton the walk takes us through Simmonds Park, then uphill to the army camp and the military road. We walk over Black Down, then descend to the Black a Ven brook and Meldon quarry, where we'll stop for coffee. An uphill section takes us over the dam and to the West Devon Way and Sourton Tors. We then pick up the Rattlebrook railway track, which takes us to Nodden Gate and the start.
Typical Dartmoor walk, rough tracks, steep uphills, some road walking, wonderful views. We'll be stopping for coffee and lunch.
