Overview

A circular moorland walk from Postbridge with some fine views (weather permitting!). From the car park we head east past Pizwell and on towards Soussons Farm, skirting the edge of Soussons Down. The path climbs and we circle Challacombe Down with its ancient stone row.  We then loop south and west to descend steadily back towards Postbridge.  Mainly moorland tracks with some rough and possibly boggy ground. A few steep climbs, stiles and stream crossings.
