    Approach Valley of Rocks from a different angle by arriving from Lyn Abbey. After leaving LHR the mapped route takes you down a rocky path. Take care when walking the A39 towards Deans Gate.
    The route takes you to the valley of The Lee river and through woodland to Lee Abbey. A turn onto the coast path gives wonderful views of The Valley of Rocks.
    From the valley you take the North Path around Hollerday Hill back to Lynton. A fine opportunity to sample the delights of Lynton's pubs, and cafe's before the route back via Lyn Way to Lynbridge.
    Once across the river at the Cottage Inn you have the option of the steep path up to LHR or the more scenic, slightly gentler route Summer House Hill

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
