Elephants Nest
   
Walks start in Mary Tavy and pass the famous Elephant's Nest pub.


This delightful & varied walk follows the Dartmoor Way to Peter Tavy , then turns East into a bridle way and later a footpath crossing a moor towards Boulters Tor. You return via Horndon not far from the Elephant's Nest.
At the pub , for those who do not mind wetlands & steep ladders across hedges, there is an alternative way via Kingsett Farm - see RED dotted line on map NOT included in the gpx file.
