Walks
These are a few of my favourite walks. Walking in the area is extensive so these are only a sample of where you could walk.
The is a lovely circular walk, about 4 miles long, starting and finishing at Fingle Bridge Inn and walking past NT Castle Drogo. There is one steep ascent and one steep descent.
Parking is very restricted so arrive early. The roads are also narrow so be prepared to do a little reversing.
Walk can also be started from Castle Drogo.
