Overview

A lovely old favourite. We cross Littaford and Longaford Tors above Wistman's medieval wood, down to cross the weir for coffee break. We then walk alongside Devonport Leat, through enchanted forest and back through woods above the Cowsick River passing Boulders inscribed with poets' names. 

Rocky, narrow path alongside leat, some stiles and a weir to cross. 

Toilets, refreshments at Two Bridges Hotel afterwards if the desire takes you.
