Dog Friendly Dartmoor WalksAs dogs are welcome on most parts of Dartmoor, finding a walk during your dog friendly Dartmoor holiday is more a question of choosing the best one for you to enjoy together, and making sure that it is the correct level for your party and your pet. To experience some of Dartmoor’s most striking views, the 3 mile walk from Fingle Bridge to Castle Drogo includes some dazzling vantage points. This walk follows the Teign as it tumbles through a wooded valley and on to Teignmouth. A circular walk, it trails the river upstream to Drewe’s Weir, along the side of the deer park and over the footbridge.
