ダートムーアの湖・トップ18

ensure you have a good waterproof coat, don't go up when it's to dark as it's very rocky and uneven you would get very lost, in the summer it's amazing with great picnic spots and then it's very hot so sun cream needed definitely.

The path along the water is a bit challenging. You have to climb at this point....

Nice ride out to Redlake, but then using a map, gps and standing on top of the hill, unable to find the track to Avon dam. Really disappointing.

Super quiet little pocket of history just below the main Tor.

Here you can admire beautiful water lilies, a beautiful photo opportunity.

Great place for a camp and swim - see the Dartmoor Camping Code: https://www.dartmoor.gov.uk/enjoy-dartmoor/outdoor-activities/camping/backpack-camping-code

This is a tranquil little place, excellent for a walk, run or cycle. Beautiful scenery with lots of viewing points. Surrounded by woodland, it's often more sheltered here than on the high moor. A road runs round the reservoir, so if you are walking, be aware of traffic.

Constructed in 1881, Kennick Reservoir covers 50 acres (20ha) and neighbours Tottiford and Trenchford Reservoirs. For those keen on fishing, it's worth knowing that Kennick is a premier rainbow trout fishery, and waterside access here is limited to anglers only, whereas you can walk around the edges of the other two reservoirs.
