Opis

Meandering in Mid Devon contains ten circular walks throughout a mostly rural area. The countryside is alive with wildlife and a magnificent tapestry of multi coloured fields which can be observed from high up in the hills overlooking the Devon Valleys this then fits together like a giant jigsaw puzzle which looks from above like a model village. Then in-between the patchwork quilt effect of the fields are the outlines of the rivers twisting and turning through the valleys sparkling and gleaming in the sunlight. Then as you walk on you encounter charming little villages and hamlets that have beautiful thatched cottages the type you find on the chocolate boxes. The areas of some of these walks can be rough and uneven and on certain sections very muddy, this will be noted in the text which should be checked before leaving home. To stay safe wear the correct footwear for example walking boots will keep the feet dry and give added support to prevent damage to ankles on the uneven ground. Before setting out on your walk make sure you have the correct O.S map and compass with you and maybe advise somebody where you are going and when you are back? Once out then please observe the Country Code, if you take a picnic make sure all the rubbish goes back home. Most important if you have a dog then keep well under control especially in the spring during lambing season, and watch out for the birds nesting low to the ground, a lot of these walks the dog can run free and have as much fun as everybody else in the group. Happy Walking.
