I'm starting to plan a trip to the UK this September, where my wife will be speaking at an academic conference in Plymouth. When London's the venue, my usual MO is to hie out for Wales or Scotland at the first opportunity, but with Plymouth tucked away down South, my initial thought was to fetch up in the National Park with my light 4x5 kit for as long as possible.
Any thought about how to best explore the moors? Since there doesn't seem to a loop system like there is in Wales (e.g. Glyndwr's Way, etc.), the pub-to-pub thing seems out--would establishing Okehampton or Two Bridges as "home base" make sense?
Otherwise, I'm fairly eclectic in my interests--though "relic forests" like Black-a-Tor Copse or Wistman's Wood are always a draw for me. Any thoughts on the NP--or Plymouth and environs--will be greatly appreciated.
