In 1927, Henry Williamson published the book ‘Tarka the Otter’ and 83 years on you can still follow Tarka across North Devon on the Tarka Trail.
The novel follows the trials and tribulations of Tarka around North Devon including significant parts of Exmoor. Henry Williamson drew on his knowledge of the area to include several real life places in the book, such as the Torridge Valley where Tarka was born.
The Tarka Trust have setup a Tarka Trail web site listing the route of the trail and the wildlife you’re likely to see along it.
