JUST TWO PLACES LEFT FOR THIS BRILLIANT FULLY CATERED LONG WEEKEND - JUST £139

One of our favourite spots with loads of brilliant walking and cycling options.

NOTE THAT THE SOUTH WEST COAST TO COAST BIKE RIDE IS NOT AN OPTION ON THIS EVENT BUT A SEPARATE EVENT ENTIRELY.

Dartmoor is one of the largest undeveloped land areas in the UK and has these very unusual hills called 'tors' (some 160 in all) which is where the granite pokes through the surrounding area. Tor bagging is so much fun as in the picture above! There are also some stunningly beautiful river valleys and gorges so from a walking point of view we are spoiled for choice.

Our accommodation is right on the edge of Dartmoor with immediate access to the moor but is also on the edge of the rather lovely town of Okehampton complete with up market Wetherspoons and several other great hostelries.

There will definitely be a short 'bonus' walk for those that can make a Friday midday start with general arrival from 6pm+ and a choice of walks on Saturday, Sunday and Monday so hopefully something for everyone. Although there are no mountains nearby don't be fooled, as there are harder as well as easier options. Dartmoor is a major training area for the UK Army so some of you can find out why!

Whilst our prime emphasis is on walking it is also a great area for trail cycling and mountain biking if there are those interested. Some fantastic horse riding is also available nearby from a stables that rides out straight onto the moors. The owners of Bracken Tor also operate an Outdoor Centre not far away so bike hire and watersports on their private lake are also possibilities. Potentially a full four day break in great surroundings and great company for less than the cost of a single night in a hotel or B & B. Amazing.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday night we'll have a selection of food including catering for those with any special dietary requirements that we are notified about. We'll also bring a variety of board games, giant jenga and our well used bluetooth speaker so staying in is an option as well as going out on the town.

Accommodation is single sex bunk rooms of a variety of sizes with full bedding provided but not towels.

Our usual breakfasts, lunch pack-ups and hot drinks will of course be included on all three days of the weekend.

We will also be hosting participants in our South West Coast to Coast (C2C) Bike Ride listed as a separate events.

This trip can now be booked for just £139 (THREE NIGHTS) which is now non refundable and payable when you book to which will be added Meetup booking fees. You can also pay via BACS without Meetup booking fees but you must tell us you are doing this so we can add you to the event manually.
