The walk
This short walk explores the wooded slopes of the Brendon Hills, where the terrain can feel distinctly hilly and more rugged than the surrounding lowlands.
Chargot Woods itself forms the heart of the route, with a mix of planted and naturally grown trees providing a pretty canopy for your walk.
Steeper sections add a little challenge, but also add to the character of this landscape on the edge of Exmoor.
