2h 15
Easy
Departure from Manaton (Devon)
This is a short, circular walk on established paths around a popular and accessible part of Dartmoor. Great at any time of year, but look out for the outstanding display of bluebells in late April and early May; hence the alternative name of the walk. Finish with a well deserved pint at the Rugglestone Inn in Widecombe.

Moderate
Departure from Drewsteignton (Devon)
Stage 6 is a tricky navigational test as we leave the Dartmoor National Park and head into Mid Devon. The route crosses the A 30, the main Exeter to Barnstaple rail line and the busy A 377. There's plenty to keep you occupied and some pretty hamlets to go through (avoiding some interesting villages, so you might be tempted to go off-route at some point).

-1,886 ft
8h 25
Difficult
Departure from North Bovey (Devon)
A circular walk in the east of Dartmoor following roads and paths, including sections of the Two Moors Way. The walk includes a mix of open moorland, footpaths and quiet roads where the farming hinterlands meet the moor. Except for the section north of the road near the Warren House Inn, all the paths are well-trodden and waymarked. There are some steep sections. Apart from the high moors, this walk is fairly sheltered from the prevailing SW winds.
Bennett's Cross to Grimspound and the Golden Dagger mine
3.53 mi
+597 ft
-623 ft
2h 10
Easy
Departure from Chagford (Devon)
This route starts at Bennett's Cross, a moorland cross marking a boundary, then circles an area on Dartmoor, where over many centuries, Tin was mined. Leading onto the Two Moors Way and Grimspound, a well-preserved Bronze Age Settlement, it is thought that the occupants mined in the area. The route then leads through the heart of the mined area, with Headland Warren, another area on the moors where rabbits were farmed. To finish back at the cross, which is near the highest Inn in Southern England, where the fire in the hearth has reputedly stayed lit since the 1800s.

Stage 4 Devon's Coast-to-Coast : Holne to YHA Dartmoor Bellever
15.36 mi
+2,093 ft
-1,637 ft
8h 55
Moderate
Departure from Holne (Devon)
This stage has a sting in the tail as an option for all those YHA lovers. The Two Moors Way goes about 5 miles east of YHA Dartmoor at Bellever but that shouldn't stop you from staying there. The extra few miles at the end of this stage and the journey back to the Two Moors Way at the beginning of the next stage are in no way laborious, rather a bonus.
