Day 2: The end of Devon

Dartmeet to West Gulworthy

Today was hilly and windy but sunny. 

Starting with a big climb from Dartmeet, the first 6 miles took us up the moor to the prison town of Princetown (by 'prison town' that means the place where Dartmoor prison is).

Following the trackbed of a former railway line we left Princetown and headed towards Tavistock and onwards to the overnight stopping point of West Gulworthy.

West Gulworthy is a hamlet which is just about still in Devon but we are a stone's throw from the border with Cornwall. Tomorrow Cornwall begins...

19 miles covered today.

Below are a few photos to sum up our second day.

PS The reason for this walk is to raise some money for two very worthy charities so please visit http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/walklandsend for more info.
