Honeybag, Chinkwell & Bell Tors Circular Walk, Widecombe in the Moor, Dartmoor National Park
Start at one of the car parking areas by Bonehill Rocks. These are not marked on the Ordnance Survey Explorer OL28 'Dartmoor' map but are clearly visible on Google's satellite imagery.
Follow the track that runs around the western flank of Bonehill Down. There are super views back down the East Webburn River Valley to Widecombe-in-the-Moor. After about a kilometre, you'll see a path to your right that climbs to the saddle of moorland between Honeybag Tor and Chinkwell Tor. This path is marked on the Ordnance Survey Explorer OL28 'Dartmoor' map.
When you reach the saddle, wander up to Honeybag Tor for great views of Hound Tor, Hayne Down, Easdon Tor and the National Trust's Castle Drogo and Teign Gorge to the north.
From Honeybag Tor, drop down to the saddle and climb up to the cairns on Chinkwell Tor. The view across to Haytor Rocks is wonderful. Descend to Bell Tor and then Bonehill Rocks and the car parking areas.
After the walk, we'd recommend a trip to the pub or cafes in Widecombe-in-the-Moor. Alternatively, The Rugglestone Inn is just outside the village.
