Dartmoor: Ten Tors Training Walk 5 - Postbridge to Meldon Dam (16 miles)

Sunset over West Mill and Yes Tors

Well what a walk this was going to be. I was somewhat dreading it but then also came a sense of excitement. Set off at Postbridge at about 9:15, again in the mist, skirting the base of Hartland Tor, then over to Grey Wethers Stone Circles and Long Ridge, down then up the side of Manga Hill, through Watern Tor, over Walla Brook taking tracks and Elephant Grass to reach Okement Hill. What lovely shelter! Near East Mill Tor and within seconds sun appeared and visibility was perfect. I felt that as a sense of achievement and found the cutest Foal too.

A very sentimental walk for me and one that I'll never forget.
