This railway viaduct opened in 1871 and crosses the East Okement River. The railway line has recently been reopened, so you can catch a train now between Exeter and Okehampton.

A beautiful section of route 27 Granite Way where the trail opens up as you pass across the Meldon Viaduct. Views across show the undulating hills of the highest area within Dartmoor National park where High Willhays and Yes Tor are situated.

Good view of the dam from here

Cycle through the ford or use footbridge

Legend tells of a couple out walking on the moor who encountered the local Pixies (Piskies) who brought down a mist to prevent them from finding their way. After much walking around in circles, the couple found a well and partook of the waters. This instantly broke the Piskies' spell, and they could make their way down to Okehampton. In gratitude, the couple erected a cross by the well, so that anyone could find it, take the water and dispel the Piskies' spells. The well itself is now covered in granite slabs, but the cross is still there.
