쉬운 마나톤 주변 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

A truly ancient place, stretching back to 1400 BC. What a task constructing the surrounding wall must have been!

This tor is just a stone's throw from the nearby car park and towers over Dartmoor. Very impressive, good for a short tour, as a starting point for visiting other tors, for a picnic (depending on the unpredictable weather here 😉) or recently also for climbing (you could see a few people free climbing - but I can't say for sure whether it's allowed) and for treasure hunts. Otherwise just beautiful nature and (outside of tourist times) nice and quiet.

The tor is romantically situated at a point where the slope breaks off briefly to form a spectacular series of upward-jutting rocks that, from certain angles, look like a series of jagged granite needles. Grea Tor is partially adorned with a maze of climbing plants that give it a colourful appearance: from the south, the two main crags are quite bare, with a huge cave in the eastern cluster; from the north, near the medieval village of Hound Tor, the crags are much more vegetated, where trees obscure some of the granite. In the summer months, bracken surrounds the southern base of the crags, but the crags nevertheless have an appearance that inevitably impresses the visitor who approaches and climbs over the granite. https://www.torsofdartmoor.co.uk/tor-page.php?tor=greator-rocks

The middle of May is usually the best time to see the bluebells at their best.

At the northern end of Hamel Down, where the moor drops down to Natsworthy, is a memorial to a RAF bomber that crashed after a raid in March 1941 during the Second World War. The memorial is by the side of a path that cuts across the moors to/from English Heritage's ancient settlement Grimspound. The memorial reads: R.A.F S.49. R.D.W. C.J.L. R.B. R.L.A.E. 21.3.41. ON 22ND MARCH 1941 A ROYAL AIR FORCE BOMBER 49 SQDN SCAMPTON CRASHED RETURNING FROM OPERATIONS OVER FRANCE THE 4 CREW WERE LOST THIS MEMORIAL BEARS THEIR INITIALS AND SQUADRON NUMBER – COMMEMORATING THEIR SELFLESS COURAGE AND THAT OF FELLOW AIRMEN WHO PERISHED ON DARTMOOR 1939 – 1945 THEIR SACRIFICE HELPED US TO MAINTAIN FREEDOM.

Hound Tor is a mass of granite boulders supposedly resembling two huge hounds. It's fun to scramble here and the running is ace, the springy grass is great fun and the rocks are grippy even when wet. There is normally an ice cream van in the car park.

Beautiful granite formation. With a little imagination you can see many characters here... maybe even the Hound of Baskerville.
