You will find about 70 free to use walks here varying from 2 to 10 miles and covering an area from Plymstock to Okehampton from Milton Abbot to Princetown. If you have been out with the Tavistock Ramblers you may have been on one of these walks. Happy Walking.
Not sure which walk to go on?
HOW ABOUT THE BERE PENINSULAR SILVER MINES WALK A DELIGHTFUL PICTURESQUE WALK OF ABOUT 6.5 MILES BUT THERE IS A SHORTCUT TO REDUCING IT TO 3 MILES. Find it under Tamar valley Walks it’s walk 3.
I have today walked around Cox Tor on the Cox Tor Circuit walk. Fine views easy walking in the sunshine. I did the full walk to pass by Merrivale Quarry and then up the Grimstone and Sortridge leat. It was about 4 miles. I have updated some of the photos. Find it under Middle Dartmoor walks.
IF YOU LIVE IN THE NORTH OF THE REGION GO FOR THE STICKLEPATH WALK IT PASSES 4 PUBS ON THE WAY AROUND. (FIND IT UNDER DARTMOOR NORTH)
Walking in West Devon you will nearly always see the church on top of Brentor well why not go and see it by going on the Brentor Parish Walk. Find it under Village and Countryside Walks.
Dartmoor Walks have been divided up into North, Middle and South Dartmoor. You will also find some Dartmoor Walks under the West Devon Way heading.
In this section I have brought together all the walks where there is a pub either at the start, at the end or in the middle. There are no new walks.
If you don’t have a car then take the bus to the start of the walk. Most of the walks use the No1 Stagecoach bus that travels between Plymouth Royal Parade and Tavistock. There are also walks using the 118 from Tavistock to Okehampton and the 79 that goes from Tavistock to Callington
In 2023 Devon County Council with encouragement from Tavistock Ramblers and their footpath officer upgraded the footpath along the Tavistock canal to make it suitable for wheelchair access. Click here to see that route. There are also lots more trails and tracks in West Devon that are quite suitable for wheelchairs and trampers to use some of which are listed here by clicking on the box below. If you haven’t already done so why not join the Disabled Ramblers Group or more locally the Dartmoor Wheeled Access Group.
