Join Simon Dell at the Rees Jeffery car park between Cox Tor and Merrivale for a morning walk looking at a little know aspect of industrial archaeology of the area.

Starting from Scorhill Gate (SX662 877), small car park by Scorhill Farm, limited parking. Route via Rival Tor, Hound Tor, White Moor Stone Circle, Cosdon Graveyard, Raybarrow Pool and Buttern Hill. Please book and pay before the event.
10/12/2023 | Corndon Tor, Jordan and West Webburn Valley Bel Tor corner
Starting at Beltor Corner, we walk northwards to climb to the top of Corndon Down. The views from up here over wide swathes of Dartmoor are really spectacular as we walk along the ridge before dropping down to join a tiny lane that leads us to Broadaford where we follow a track to Shallowford. Here we meet up with the West Webburn and follow it through the charming hamlet of Jordan and then some lovely woodland. We emerge in Ponsworthy and walk on paths back up the hill to our start point.

OVERVIEW: This will be a relatively gentle walk from Belstone village heading south on a good track alongside the River Taw before ascending to Oke Tor. We will then head north along the ridge, skirting to the west of the ridge on a good track that eventually picks up the Tarka Trail back into Belstone.

THOUGHT FOR THE SEASON
“You huge mountains, Bashan mountains, mighty mountains, dragon mountains. All you mountains not chosen, sulk now, and feel sorry for yourselves, for this is the mountain God has chosen to live on; he’ll rule from this mountain forever.”
Psalm 68:15-16 (The Message paraphrase version)
