Difficulty:
This delightful walk follows a well defined footpath along the river Culm into Culmstock.
You can make it shorter by taking the 'yellow' shortcut and avoiding Culmstock - see map (total distance: 6 miles)
It passes the Culm Valley Inn, just before you cross the Culm into Culmstock.
From Culmstock turn right into Silver Street.
It returns via Ashill passing its pub , the Ashill Inn
It includes quite a steep climb to Gaddon Downwith - however the views are quite stunning.
There are several options:
a) loop back onto the path from Uffculme by crossing a footbridge. This avoids a steep climb onto Gaddon Down.
b) by-pass Culmstock and cross the bridge then continue to Ashill (6.1 miles)
