Discover the rugged, iconic landscape of Dartmoor with this selection of 28 walks designed to help you find the best it has to offer. While largely uninhabited wilderness with few villages, farms and roads, there are still plenty of opportunities for walks of all levels. Some of the most significant features of this often treeless landscape are the large numbers of tors that dominate Dartmoor. These are the remnants of hard masses of granite, drastically reduced in size and moulded into their present shapes by millions of years of weathering. Sheeps Tor, Kes Tor and Hound Tor are included on walks, as is the man-made, but equally fascinating 'The Graveyard' standing stones. All 28 of the walks are graded for difficulty and tried and tested by seasoned walkers. The routes range from 3.5miles to 9 miles and include route descriptions, maps, notes and key features to look for.
