Walk up the Tor and experience the all round stunning views. Especially beautiful on a clear day at sunset (or join the druids at dawn on midsummer's day...). There is a lovely circular walk following footpaths of less than 2 miles from the town centre that takes you to the Tor via Dod Lane, and back to the town centre along Chilkwell street via the Chalice Well.
