点评:We started our walk in Okehampton with breakfast in the lovely cafe opposite the railway cafe platform. Marvellous selection of food and plenty of it, all served by very friendly staff.
Fueled by the very good food we set off for Lydford where we would be staying the night.
The walk is very easy as hard surface almost all of the way and no hills. It rained now and then along our way but nothing too heavy and you can shelter here and there if you need. There are places along the way that offer coffee and food but we were fine without.
Where the walk takes you over the viaduct the scenery is spectacular in showcasing the beauty of Dartmoor. As it was springtime there were lambs bleating in all of the fields and spring blossom everywhere. Walking in the pure fresh air made even fresher by the occasional shower was invigorating and so enjoyable.
Until our day was almost ruined by two out of control e-bike riders who appeared out of nowhere around a bend that was on an downward incline from their direction. The tarmac was wet and they screamed as they almost hit us, only just managing to swerve at the last moment as this all happened in seconds.
We were incredibly lucky and also lucky not to be walking with small children or dogs.
A wonderful walk and a enjoyable day but I would warm other walkers that not all e-bike riders on this trail know what they're doing.
翻译:我们从奥克汉普顿出发,在火车站咖啡站台对面一家可爱的咖啡馆享用了早餐。那里的食物种类丰富,种类繁多,服务员也都非常友好热情。
在美食的滋养下,我们出发前往利德福德,我们将在那里过夜。
步行非常轻松,几乎全程都是硬路面,没有坡度。沿途不时下雨,但雨势不大,如果需要,可以随时躲雨。沿途有一些地方提供咖啡和食物,但我们没有雨也过得很好。
步行穿过高架桥时,达特穆尔的景色美不胜收。正值春天,田野里羊咩咩叫,到处都是春暖花开的景象。在清新纯净的空气中漫步,偶尔的阵雨更增添了清新的气息,令人神清气爽,乐在其中。
直到我们的一天差点被两个失控的电动自行车骑手毁了,他们不知从哪里冒出来,拐过一个下坡的弯道。柏油路面很湿,他们尖叫着差点撞到我们,好在最后一刻才勉强转身,因为这一切都发生在几秒钟之内。
我们非常幸运,也很幸运没有带着小孩或狗一起行走。
这次散步很棒,也是愉快的一天,但我要提醒其他步行者,并非所有在这条路上骑电动自行车的人都知道他们在做什么。
