ウォークハンプトンの滝・トップ5

Very photogenic spot

Burrator Reservoir is a stunning reservoir in Dartmoor. It sits on the southern side, as it was built to supply water to the people of Plymouth. Here there is a lovely little unnamed water fall coming into the reservoir off the thick wooded western hillside. There is also a little bench seat here. A great break spot if you're doing a lakeside trail.

Lovely old bridge, and weir in full flow.

The "waterfall" is smaller than you think, but still beautiful to look at.

Leat waterfall is a waterfall that can be seen at Burrator Reservoir, on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. It is formed by the water from the historic Devonport Leat, which was built in the 18th century to supply water to Plymouth Dockyard. The leat runs along the valley and ends at Burrator in a cascade of water that drops into the reservoir. The waterfall can be viewed from a footpath that follows the leat and crosses a bridge over it. The footpath also leads to the Burrator Discovery Centre, which offers exhibitions and displays about Burrator’s history, wildlife and culture. Leat waterfall is one of the attractions of Burrator Reservoir, which is a popular destination for families, nature enthusiasts, historians and Dartmoor lovers alike. The reservoir offers ample walks, views and wildlife, as well as fishing opportunities. You can also explore one of Dartmoor’s most spectacular tors, Sheepstor, which dominates Burrator and offers one of the most impressive views of the reservoir.

The beautiful area that is Tavistock, if you arrived on foot or two wheels there are several lovely cafes to set you up to continue you discovery of Devon

This gorgeous 18th-century bridge is one of several in the heart of Tavistock but is perhaps the prettiest. The River Tavy rushes underneath to pass down the weir, creating a series of little waterfalls in lush surroundings. The bridge features both on the Dartmoor Way cycle route and National Cycle Network Route 27.

Burrator Reservoir, near Yelverton on the south-west side of Dartmoor, is surrounded by attractive wooded countryside. On the west side of the reservoir this waterfall is fed by the Devonport Leat, an artificial watercourse that was constructed in the 1790s to provide a water supply to Devonport. Most of the water from the leat now flows into Burrator Reservoir which supplies water to Plymouth.
