周辺の湖・トップ5

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.

Left Lake is a small lake on the right of the Two Moors Way trail from Ivybridge heading north to Red Lake. It's a great little pool with a peaty bottom, so the water is quite dark. It warms up well if you get a few days of sunshine, perfect for a quick dip on a long run on the south moor.

Red Lake is an area of former china clay workings, with a peaceful lake and volcano-shaped spoil heap. Today it's a grass covered hill with great views over the south moor. The lakes in the area are inviting on a hot day, and it's a good site for a responsible wild camp. The track from Ivybridge is a long run, but the navigation is easy and it feels brilliantly wild. OuterEdge Events hold a popular Dartmoor Volcano race to this point each September.

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

Red Lake is a the volcano shaped spoil heap from the china clay and other mineral mining that used to occur here. Today it's a grass covered hill with great views over the south moor. The lakes are still and inviting on a hot day and it's a good site for a responsible wild camp.

The Avon Dam was built in 1957 to supply water to the coastal towns of South Devon. You can ride up the access road to the base of the dam but will have to leave your bike or push up to see the reservoir.

Dam with a beautiful lake behind it. Beautiful panorama.
