This afternoon (Friday) I went to the Granite Way, to map a further 3 routes for my Accessible Walks. All three start from the Pump and Pedal cafe & cycle shop, one to Meldon Viaduct, one to Meldon Dam and one to the Lake Viaduct.
As it is a route we have done several times, I have not taken many photos today. It was really warm when I started, just after 2pm. But by 5pm there was quite a breeze, with me wishing I had a fleece with me.
The access to the dam is good, but at the far end there is a gate onto a rougher track. There is plenty of room to turn around on the dam itself, as you definitely need a robust scooter to try the path alongside the reservoir.
There is limited parking outside the Pump & Pedal, so I have included this photo to show there is parking on the road.
The views from the Lake Viaduct, among my favourite on the western edge Dartmoor. In the next few months, I will be be mapping the routes from Okehampton Station to Meldon.
