    Old stone walls are part and parcel of Dartmoor's incredible landscape. Still a relatively wild national park, the walls that criss cross parts of the moor use local stone and traditional methods, becoming a part of the natural landscape.

    The stone walls are a haven for lichens, moss, flowers and other plants, making them fascinating habitats by themselves. This trail is bordered by traditional walls that have stood for decades.
