A good route - takes in a lot of scenic villages and vistas, minimal time on roads (and those short stretches that are included aren't very busy). One current issue with the route - which has been reported to the council on 14 Aug 24 is the area adjacent to Poples Well/Grintley lane - where the footpath has not been maintained. Depending on how long the council take to get to this section (may be some time from experience) it is possibly worth ignoring the off road section and continuing along the lane....

This route is mostly off road, crossing farmland, but is tough going in the winter. Much of the farmland sections aren't very walker friendly in that the footpath signs are gone or damaged, there are fields of crops to cross, and many of the stiles and gateways are in a sad state of repair, often with barbed wire or electric fences presenting an additional hazard....

Loved so much about this route! I agree with the other reviews....

You'd want to have some waterproof boots or shoes if it's been raining or been wet for a while. It's otherwise a great route....

There's about 3km/2 miles of road walking at the Yetminster End where you'll need to walk carefully....

I'm keen to walk from Crewkerne to Honiton.... so will come back and use it again for that! Thank you Helen!!!...

Some people will not like all the lanes (there's a lot of lane walking), but I enjoy walking them......

Near East Lease Farm the footpath is blocked by wire fences, but there is a farm track a few feet to the north that I used instead....

Venues Track is waterlogged and only passable in wellies, and even then is unpleasant. Use ChaCre2 which avoids these problems....

If you follow this spectacular walk you'll find far reaching views to rival any in those more well known places. There is a section with "Beware of the Bull" signs written in blood red, which is a little off putting, but there was no sign of the bull when I went....

Although the route follows a public footpath, there is no way through Lower Penhill Farm. Coming from the Yetminster direction, you will get stuck in the farmyard setting off their alarms. Use CreYet two instead....

Route is fine apart from the way in/out of Ilminster which involves a mile of road walking, on a B road where there is no path. Use IlmCre two instead...

Decent route between Crewkerne and Ilminster via Hinton St George using footpaths and quiet lanes. Coming into Ilminster you go through a field with horses behind electric fences, and for some reason the land owner has put a barrier across the path....

Helen Gough

Decent route, not too strenuous, crossing farmland, towns and villages....

Helen Gough

Some of the tracks are rough underfoot and the route is not suitable for wheelchairs....

There is an easier path into Mosterton from North Buckham farm by walking via Cheddington Lane and not turning via Bakers Mill farm...
