Difficulty:
This invigorating walk starts in Luppitt and climbs steadily to its highest point, Turfhouse, following meandering public footpaths and quiet lanes.
During the winter wellingtons are essential.
The Luppitt Inn has been named one of Britain's smallest pubs ; it is currently run by the a 98 year young landlady serving only one beer , the Otter bitter. and is only open on certain evenings, including the weekend.
There are several steady climbs.
Although the distance is only 3.1 miles , allow for 2 hours due to a small strenuous stretch.of peaty soils.
