Starting point




Devon
PL7 4NW

We will head up Drakes Trail to Yelverton ascending up to Dartmoor with special views along this shared path. We will then drop down to Walkhampton and turn off for Horrabridge for a lovely descent down into the village where we descend over the river and join Bedford road up the long climb towards Uppaton Sampford Spinney. We loop round the village then scamper over the open moorland past the Golf course and snake our route into Tavy for a refreshment break. Sated, we head back on the cycle path around the large school, Morrisons and Housing estate to regain Drakes trail as we clamber up the hill passing Horrabridge and the Airfield to Yelverton. It’s now your climbing is done as cruise downhill back to our rendezvous point at Coypool, a job well done.
