Mamhead Obelisk Long Loop

Share This Post

This route adds a quarter of a mile to the short route, but there is a section of about 3 to 4 yards that has exposed tree roots. This could be a problem with chairs/scooters with very small wheels.

Location : Haldon Forest

Starting Point : Obelisk car Park

OS Grid Reference : SX921808

Distance : 1.25 Miles

Route Surface : Gravel

Category : Level 2

No facilities

This again is an easy short circuit, apart from a few exposed tree roots, which would be difficult for scooters with the very small wheels ( less than 4 inches in diameter ).

As with the short loop walk, the viewpoint is the main feature of this walk. Although it is a very short walk, I have rated it as level 2 due to the tree roots
