Lynton to Minehead via Lynmouth, Butler Hill, Culbone, Porlock Weir, Bossington Hill
Plenty of woodland to mask the sea views, marshes and then heathland near Minehead.
SW Coast Path: Last or first stage if walking the other way.
This stage seemed dull in comparison to much of the SWCP, but I was in a great deal of pain with both feet playing up badly from half way. I think my judgement of this stage might have been clouded by my mood. Still expect plenty of ascent, but with woodland cover the my GPS data might be questioned as to exactly how much. Considering the distance with the ascent, add in two very painful feet and the result was a very tough day for me.
My Rank: *
