‘Avon Dam and Redlake Tramway – a Dartmoor walk’

Meet: Shipley Bridge CP (OS SX 680 629) ‘click here for map

We start from the car park at Shipley Bridge near South Brent, a few miles north of the A38.  This is a smallish car park, hence the early start to make sure we get a space! Travelling time from East Budleigh is about 45 minutes.

The walk winds up beside the River Avon to the Avon Dam reservoir, then crosses more open moorland with interesting archaeological features and joins the Two Moors Way for a short distance before descending a track following the Redlake Tramway to arrive back at Shipley Bridge.  Bring a picnic lunch.
