Join our Quantock Hills May Photo Walk Long Route, a circular walk, from Stowey Rocks Farm, for an introduction to Plowright Organic. We will make our way to Stogursey and then our walk will pass back through Nether Stowey.We&#x27;ll stop in Stogursey for a chance for refreshments.On our Quantock Hills Photo Walks it doesn&#x27;t matter if you don&#x27;t have a fancy camera or technical expertise, it&#x27;s about appreciating your surroundings and finding somewhere in nature that you can immerse yourself. The camera is a fantastic tool to encourage you to slow down and focus your attention, it&#x27;s a mindfulness exercise and can be a very relaxing process.Our Long Route Photo Walk is for anyone who would like a dose of nature, but would like a longer challenge to stretch the legs. The group will walk at a moderate pace, creating a visual record of what we see on the walk, however, stoppages will be limited and we will take a longer scheduled break half way.This Long Route is a 12km (7.5 mile) walk and has a mixture of countryside and farmland locations.Start time:10amTransport:This walk will start from Stowey Rocks Plowright Organic who have kindly allowed us to use the venue as our start location.
