Re: Devon bikepacking/wild camp
What it may be is a bit of rough stuff to the forrest, then gravel and roads up to the Warren House Inn before getting on the bridleway towards Grimspound.

Re: Devon bikepacking/wild camp
Ah I get you now - honestly that's part of the route that I know less of - it could be hike a bike, it could be fine. I'll take another look again!

Re: Devon bikepacking/wild camp
Keith - How do you propose riding from Belstone to Hangingstone Hill? Is there an unmarked trail accross the range? Goody if there is. I love a Dartmoor death march. Looks like squishy tussock territory to me and I can’t see on the OS how you do it directly. There's a military road from the entranc...
