Free car park
Easy walk with some sections uneven under foot
On the walk you will come across small areas of water which have come off the heathland. Great for a paddle.
Located at the car park.
The heathland has wide swathes of gorse and heather and is a popular spot for orienteering, hill-walking, mountain biking and flying radio-controlled aircraft. It has a wide variety of wildlife, in particular the Nightjar, which migrates from Africa each year. The common contains a training ground for the Royal Marines, part of the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines based at nearby Lympstone in the parish of Woodbury
This was a very easy walk with little effort required.
If you wanted to extend it or explore more, there are plenty of pathways you could take.
The carpark was busy but on the walk we met very few people and their dogs.
