Seeing as this is on my doorstep I decided to go and have an explore as a test of some new bikepacking gear.

Epic views, remote and barren. Navigation was fairly straightforward on a nice sunny day but there are sections where the right route is vague at best.

I cut out the section via Bellever as I'd ridden that before and was short on time. Between powdermills and cocks hill be prepared for some pushing. I think the article is economical with how rideable this actually is.

I forked left at the top of cocks hill and dropped directly into Peter Tavy as its a much better descent.

Anyway, some pics.

Was a little bit Dog Soldiers in the woods above Burrator on the climb up to Princetown.

Nothing but sheep and bog for miles...

Downhill all the way home from here.

34 miles, 3000ft of climbing and ~4 hrs moving time.
