Explore Dartmoor with Us
Explore a unique landscape; majestic tors, giant boulders, ancient clapper bridges, waterfalls, babbling brooks, peaty bogs, winding leats, stunted twisted woodlands and evergreen forests.
Watch a river rise from its beginning and meander through the moorland valleys towards the sea.
Observe wildlife in this remote and wild habitat, from kestrels and soaring buzzards, to ponies and deer.
Follow moorland tracks and pathways to symbolic historical settlements and sites of dis-used industrial workings.
Experience the contrast in weather: from clear blue skies to swirling opaque mists and the colours of the seasons: from green to gold to white
Learn about mosses, lichens and medicinal plants thriving on the heathland and valley mires.
Listen to the mysterious tales and legends associated with the moor.
Clamber up granite tors and stop-a-while to take in the breath-taking views in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
