15th November Fingle Bridge

A very foggy drive over Dartmoor but just a bit misty at the start of the walk.

Our route was to take the high level path up along the top of the valley - just below Castle Drogo and then return alongside the river.

A steep track up towards Castle Drogo and along to Sharp Tor



Castle Drogo in the distance.

Holly in abundance









These are not good to eat but the fairies like them!











 Along to Dogmarsh Bridge....

....and back along the other side

Then it got a little brighter and the sun came out.

The footpath on the south side of the river was closed so we came back to the original side to follow the river back to the start.


Past the weir...

...and a staircase to heaven?  no - just a beautiful view.


For lunch at the Fingle Bridge Inn - busier than you might have expected for the time of year. The food was good.

Walking today, Paul, Charlie, Carol, Roger, Rosemary and Terry
