This impressive granite tor sits at 1,299 feet high (396 m) on the rugged edge of Bodmin Moor. This region's main industry used to be mining and the flanks of the tor are littered with its remnants including a disused railway to the south.

You can clamber atop the granite if you're comfortable doing so and the weather is conducive. Take care to avoid slipping and don't leave your camera at the bottom: the views are wonderful.

Off the beaten track and still on the way. So you could describe a tour on the Kilmar Tor. A rewarding round leads from Minion coming past the stone rings, up on the Cheesewring and further on the Sharp goal. From there it goes in direct line to the Kilmar gate. Detailed directions are required only conditionally. Normally, it is sufficient to simply orient yourself in the direction of the next waypoint. Careful you should only be with the grazing cows on the moor and this pass with respect and appropriate distance.
