One of the longest and hardest climbs in Dartmoor. Can get quite busy in summer, but the road is wide so it’s not really a problem. Some incredible scenery. The climbing is broken into three sections. The first goes through the farmland before a flatter section. Next comes a ramp onto the open moorland. Another flat section and a short descent into Merrivale before the final ramp to the summit.

Lange klim richting Princetown, waar een van de zwaarst beveiligde gevangenissen van het VK ligt. Maar meer dan dat is het de westelijke toegangsweg naar Dartmoor. Paar steile gedeeltes, maar al met al prima te doen (zelfs met bepakking...).
