휘처치 최고의 러닝 경로

A short, easy tour: clear landscapes, soft grassy paths, gentle inclines, and magnificent views. A beautiful loop around the Langstone Manor campsite.

This footpath walks across the moor from the road near Merrivale to Moortown. It roughly follows the Grimstone and Sortridge leat. The leat was built to help maintain a constant water supply to the farms and houses in the area. The images in the pictures are of Windy Post Cross which stands on this path.

Stunning view over Dartmoor

Here the hiker passes an ancient wayside cross made of granite. This small, sacred monument does not impress with a special or even striking design. Rather, it is the symbol of faith that has aged in simple dignity - and at the same time a sign along the way - that still leaves a deep impression in the middle of this lonely landscape. It can be assumed that the builders at the time did not just want to set up a profane wayside sign, but also asked for God's protection and blessing with this cross.

The path along the old railway track is very overgrown, muddy and in parts one is walking in a stream for a good distance. Wouldn’t recommend it.

Historic covered market, in beautifully restored building. Great for browsing, all sorts on offer, good when the weather's wet (which is fairly frequent 😉).

There's a great permanent exhibition in here - good social history. Free, and well worth a visit.

Lovely old bridge, and weir in full flow.
