Over Exmoor proper, then leaving the national park, found myself in the middle of a fox hunt, so had to dodge hounds, posh blokes on horses, and quad bikers, then afterwards navigate through what seemed like a 4×4 festival, as the hunters drove home from Chalkcombe.
Whether they were hunting real foxes or it was a legal hunt following a scent, I don’t know.
Snacks from Bratton Fleming shop for dinner, then camped in wood a little after. The woods were on a steep hill, so I slept on one of the more level forestry roads.
