Distance is 22 miles. The route begins in the picturesque Exmoor town of Dulverton. The route heads east towards Wimbleball Lake then turns back to head up the Exe Valley and up on to Winsford Hill.  From here the route drops down to the Barle River to the famous Tarr Steps.  It then proceeds via Hawkridge and drops down again to the river and finishes in Dulverton.

The route involves a range of surfaces from bridle paths, forest tracks, hard tracks and two roads.

For people wanting to stay overnight in Dulverton, there is a hostel available, a range of B&B's and camping in a nearby field.

There is a short film on YouTube showing scenes from the 2016 Eat Dirt on Exmoor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5eU_OMOQ0g
