Mand & I loved this trail, despite the weather! This 7 mile circular route follows the Ridgeway for a stretch before winding through Wendover Woods. We parked at Wendover train station (a heads up - it cost £8 to park.. so might be worth looking to park elsewhere)

Beware the field of crazy bulls after the golden valley! Our third night out together - but our first rainy night! Bob loved carrying his own gear for the first time and he settled lovely :) we had a 5 mile hike through the woods (the Chilterns), a cosy night in the tent in a nice sheltered area, and another 2 miles of wandering back to the car in the morning. It got down to 3 degrees in the early hours but we kept pretty snug. Feel like we're starting to get in the swing of it, great night, Bob! Dartmoor was bleak and beautiful for us for this hike to Yes Tor - such a thick fog came down, that we had to navigate off the moor with map, compass & GPS. |
