Programme 60+ Events Saturday 27 August – Sunday 4 September 2016 www.dartmoorwalkingfestival.co.uk Produced by DARTMOOR MAGAZINE Dartmoor Walking Festival 2016 Welcome to the official programme for the Dartmoor Walking Festival! The Walking Festival is being run for the first time by Moorland Guides, and full details of these walks – and more – are listed at www.dartmoorwalkingfestival.co.uk and www.moorlandguides.co.uk. The festival runs from Saturday 27 August until Sunday 4 September inclusive, covers all areas of Dartmoor and is open to all ages and abilities. It will be very clearly marketed as ‘Dartmoor on your Doorstep’. The National Trust and Dartmoor National Park are fully supporting the week with Ranger-led walks as well as archaeological visits and events which are detailed on our website as well. The Dartmoor Search and Rescue Group is also supporting the week. If you have ever wondered what they do when searching for missing walkers in the dark then come and join them on an evening exercise to find out more! Local speakers will be putting on a variety of evening illustrated Dartmoor-themed talks at the National Park Visitor Centre in the square at Princetown. The week will culminate in a celebration event at the Prince of Wales public house in Princetown. Many thanks to the Dartmoor Magazine for including our programme with their summer 2016 issue. Keep an eye on the website at www.dartmoorwalkingfestival.co.uk and the organisers at www.moorlandguides.co.uk for updates and more information.

  • 2020 Paignton

    2020 Paignton

    GUIDE 1 Welcome to the 2020 NOPS Kit Kat Tour Torbay is a large bay on Devon’s south coast. Overlooking its clear blue waters from their vantage points along the bay are three towns: Paignton, Torquay and Brixham. The bays ancient flood plain ends where it meets the steep hills of the South Hams. These hills act as suntrap, allowing the bay to luxuriate in its own warm microclimate. It is the bays golden sands and rare propensity for fine weather that has led to the bay and its seaside towns being named the English Riviera. Dartmoor National Park is a wild place with open moorlands and deep river valleys, a rich history and rare wildlife, making is a unique place and a great contrast to Torbay in terms of photographic subjects. The locations listed in the guide have been selected as popular areas to photograph. I have tried to be accurate with the postcodes but as many locations are rural, they are an approximation. They are not intended as an itinerary but as a starting point for a trigger-happy weekend. All the locations are within an hour or so drive from the hotel. Some locations are run by the National Trust or English Heritage. It would be worth being members or going with a member so that the weekend can be enjoyed to the full. Prices listed are correct at time of publication, concession prices are in brackets. Please take care and be respectful of the landscape around you. If you intend climbing or doing any other dangerous activities, please go in pairs (at least).

This information has been produced by the Dartmoor National Park Authority in conjunction with Dartmoor For All, and is designed to help and encourage those who are disabled, less mobile or have young children, to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful countryside in the Dartmoor area. This information will help you to make the right choices for your day out. Nearly half of Dartmoor is registered common land. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985, a right of access was created for persons on foot or horseback. This right extends to those using wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters, although one should be aware that the natural terrain and gradients may curb access in practice. Common land and other areas of 'access land' are marked on the Ordnance Survey (OS) map, Outdoor Leisure 28.
