Hemyock to Wellington Monument circular

This route begins in Hemyock and climbs up onto Combe Hill and on to Wellington Monument following a combination of footpaths and country lanes. 

There are a couple of short 400m sections along the busy road on the top of the Blackdown ridge. Unfortunately this is unavoidable so take care.

From the monument the route plunges down off the ridge through wood and farmland before returning up onto Quarts Moor.

The return takes in Clayhidon and an optional stop at the Half Moon Inn before dropping back down through more farmland into the River Culm valley. The final section is along country lanes.
