The Dartmoor Pixie is off on his holidays to America. He has
never been away from home before so he would like you to check that
his home is safe and hasn't been moved into by his cousins, the
Pesky Pisgies.
Before he left he hid some toys near his home in the forest for you
to find and also to scare away his cousins in case they are
nearby.
He drew you a map to follow to find the hidden hoard of toys and
would like you to take one as a reward for finding it and making
sure his home is still safe.
You must enter the enchanted forest through the gate over the
bridge from the car park. Follow the path which goes along the
riverside and you will soon reach "Boulder Gully". If you can get
through all the boulders and up the hill you will come to a stile.
Over this you must climb and follow the path through the two
leaning trees which is the start of Pixies' lands. Follow the windy
path and you will come to "Step Mountain" It is no longer safe to
attempt the climb to the summit of Step Mountain so you will have
to walk around and over the wall.
From the other side of Step Mountain you must turn to your right
and follow a small path through the forest until you see the big
fallen tree whose branches are touching the wall. Pixies house is
under the roots of the fallen tree and the treasure is very close
by.
There is usually an ice cream van in the car park and as an extra
reward for finding yet another cache for Mum and Dad, they must buy
you whichever one you want.
