Yelverton to Walkhampton, then the meandering lanes across the River Walkham, and up to the open moorland of Sampford Spiney, from there a leisurely run to Peter Tavy and the upper reaches of the River Tavy, before a gradual sweep around past Hornden, and on to Mary Tavy where the views really open up, as we cross Blackdown Common. Thereafter, a gentle pull to Brentor from
where an easy descent to Tavistock for refreshments, then the Drakes Trail and on to our starting point.
