The Devonshire Heartland Way runs between Okehampton and the village of
Stoke Canon, just north of Exeter.
A west-to-east route across pastoral Devon, starting with Dartmoor backdrops,
it uses ancient footpaths, bridleways and some minor roads the route takes
in Sampford Courtenay, North Tawton, where it links with the Tarka Trail,
Down St Mary, where it links with the Two Moors Way; Colebrooke, Yeoford
and Crediton before finishing at Stoke Canon.
The logo for the trail has a Spindle Berry Flower on it. You should be able
to see many growing in the hedgerows en-route.
The entire Hartland Peninsula is an Area of Outstanding Natural
Beauty. The spectacular Atlantic coastline is complemented by
hanging valleys, tumbling waterfalls, ancient woodlands and
flowers, animals, birds and marine life of every kind.
