Overview

Starting from the picturesque village of Selworthy, we climb to the top of Selworthy Beacon for beautiful views over Exmoor and the Bristol Channel. We then follow part of the South West Coast Path, with several short but steep ups and downs, take a path around Bossington Hill with lovely views, and then return through woodland to Selworthy, with the possibility of a cream tea at the village tea rooms. Coffee and lunch stops included. Less than 5 stiles.
