view from the car park

In the late afternoon towards evening you are pretty much alone. Beautiful place to enjoy a sunset or to marvel at the stars. Here you have a 360 ° panoramic view. https://www.dartmoor.gov.uk/enjoy-dartmoor/planning-your-visit/places/haytor

Dartmeet is named as the meeting point of the two major tributaries of the Dart, the East Dart and West Dart rivers. This has been a crossing point for hundreds of years with the remains of an old clapper bridge near the current road bridge (built in 1792). It's a nice place to stop for a break before tackling the road climbs in either direction.

A pretty touristy village in a steep valley. A good place to start a ride with parking, good cafes, a shop and plenty of good riding from the door. The Rugglestone Inn slightly out of the village is the best pub.

Top 100 Climbs 9 Haytor Vale Rising up the eastern side of Dartmoor is the long climb to Haytor Rocks. Beginning just outside Bovery Tracey, the B3387 forks left at Five Wyches Cross. Rising up to 12%, the rough lower slopes are by and large tree-covered, but as you pass the Edgemoor Hotel you emerge from under the protection of the woods. Here the gradient steadies, althoughnot enough for you to relax. Ullacombe Farm signals the end of the easier stuff and the road bends left, passing over a cattle grid, and rising steeply into the national park. It's really hard going through a small wooded section, and then it eases once more before the hardest stretc. A long, tough grind brings you out onto open moorland, where you climb gently towards and past the Haytor Visitor Centre - the base for walkers and climbers visiting the giant granite outcrop that towers above your final strength-sapping Push to the summit.

Road bridge over River Avon. C17 or C18 packhorse bridge with hump back and widened on upstream side. Stone rubble. single round arch. Large stone slabs forming string with parapets above with large granite coping stones. In 1669 Lydia Bridge was in decay and the existing bridge appears to be either the restored earlier bridge or an entire rebuilding of late C17 or C18 https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101307206-lydia-bridge-south-brent#.Y_SY0SaZO3A

One of my favourite climbs prefer to join from beckaford which is a tougher climb bit sees far less traffic than if you take the haytor left hander from bovey

A big rock indeed. You can see them from a wide area and you can use them as a landmark.
