Description

Day started with reasonable weather but during course of the day the cloud dropped and started to rain. Visibility was poor for most of the day but since we were out we used this as a chance to practice navigation!
Started from YHA Okehampton, crossed the A30 and headed east to pick up the Tarka trail. Continued south over Belstone Common, Higher Tor and Oke Tor. At this time the visibility had worsened but we carried on over Steeperton Tor and then East to Hound Tor before heading North to Little Hound Tor and Cosdon Hill. Picked up track from summit of Cosdon Hill and headed north to pick up Tarka trail and then headed west along River Taw, through the village of Belstone and retraced steps along Tarka trail back to the campsite
