Explore the charming village of Buckland Monachorum with a delightful circular country walk that offers beautiful scenery and a touch of history. Starting at the historic church near the quaint Drake Manor Inn, follow a mix of public footpaths, bridle paths, and quiet lanes for a 3.9-mile adventure. Discover picturesque views as you journey through North Plantation and Bucktor before descending back to the village. With the chance to see Sir Francis Drake's ship carving in the church and enjoy a post-walk pint at the local pub, this hike promises a perfect blend of nature and heritage in a fun and scenic setting.
