Storywalk: Merrivale Rows and Wild Ritual
Event Description
Adventure into the storied landscape. Follow in the footsteps of our ancestors as we walk the stories of Dartmoor. Join author Helen JR Bruce on a leisurely paced walk, with stops to enjoy the scenery and share tales in the locations which inspired the folklore. We will speak the stories of the land back to the land, with gratitude, and consider the relevance which they still hold for us today. Expect lively tales of mischievous pixies, spectral hounds, ghosts and land spirits, plus hands on interaction as we honour our connection with the land.
