Set just a little north of Dartmoor’s famous Haytor Rocks, hikes up Hound Tor bring you to a much more jumbled granite outcrop. Like many places amongst the national park’s rugged terrain, Hound Tor has legends and myths attached to it and is said to resemble a pack of dogs. Perhaps the inspiration for Conan Doyle’s ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’, exploring this well known hill in Dartmoor’s common mist can certainly be an eerie experience.

Vandring

Hound Tor is a breathtaking granite outcrop that rewards those who climb to the top with magnificent views over Dartmoor. According to legend, these rocks used to be hunting dogs, a story that may have inspired Sherlock Holmes' most famous case, Hound of the Baskervilles.

Løb

Hound Tor is a mass of granite boulders supposedly resembling two huge hounds. It's fun to scramble here and the running is ace, the springy grass is great fun and the rocks are grippy even when wet. There is normally an ice cream van in the car park.
