Middle Staple Tor (Dartmoor) – A Wild Camp with Stunning Views I visited Staple Tor and wild camped on Middle Staple Tor during a recent bikepacking trip through Cornwall and Dartmoor. I pushed up from the nearby car park — a handy spot to pause for a refreshment before the final ascent. In good weather, the tors look deceptively close, but Middle Staple Tor sits just over 450m, and with a fully loaded rig, I ended up pushing most of the way. That effort was well worth it. The views from the top were incredible, offering a wide sweep of the surrounding moorland. I could see the weather rolling in from a distance, which gave me just enough time to dive into the tent before the rain and low visibility hit. A classic Dartmoor moment. The descent via the old quarryman’s path is short but enjoyable, leading back to the road toward Princetown — perfect for a hot breakfast and access to town facilities. A memorable spot for wild camping and a peaceful overnight on the moor. Tips: • Bring proper gear, footwear and prepare for pushing your bike up rocky paths • Keep an eye on the weather — it changes fast up there and is generally cooler even in summer • Ideal for wild camping with amazing sunrise views if you’re lucky with the weather

A short, easy tour: clear landscapes, soft grassy paths, gentle inclines, and magnificent views. A beautiful loop around the Langstone Manor campsite.

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.

Lovely place to stop off

Because you can!!

This is a place to explore for sure. Wild camping allowed as long you respect the rules.

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

Very cool but currently not permitted to wild camp. Still a fantastic place for a dip!

South Hessary Tor is a small rocky outcrop down the track south of Princetown. It stands at 450 m high and offers good views down Hart Tor Brook towards Leeden Tor and north over Princetown to the mast on higher North Hessary Tor.

Pew Tor is a peak in Dartmoor National Park. The tor rises above the lowlands of Whitchurch and Plaster Downs above Tavistock. The tor has plenty of large boulders to climb around on to try and get the best views of the surrounding countryside, and is quite close to roads and parking, so makes a perfect scramble for those not wishing to walk too far.

Whilst it's not quite as grand as Great Staple Tor a few hundred metres north, Middle Staple Tor is still a worthy waymark affording some magnificent views across the Dartmoor landscape.

Great spot for a swim or watching the horses take a drink

Amazing place for a wild swim with safety to consider first, moderate trail with some elevation.

Very out the way, Dartmoor landscape at its best,BLEAKNESS!

The last peak before dropping down to Princetown if you're heading up from the south on Ivybridge Lane, South Hessary Tor has some fascinating history if you climb up a little closer. On the top of the granite rocks, you'll find a 'cobra', or weathered iron spike. This is one of four across the moor that used to mark boundaries.

A must detour from the Quarryman's Path bridleway, enjoy the views down over Merrivale and the River Walkham valley to the south, with the similarly sized Roos Tor close-by to the north-east.

it's not exactly undiscovered but cool. apparently the quarry is filled with water from a spring.

This deep hidden pool is one of the finest places for a wild swim on Dartmoor, and a nice wild camping spot as you can wild camp legally on Dartmoor.

Also here you’ll see signs that peat was dug and transported on a wooden tramway (South Zeal Tramway) down to Shipley where it was distilled into naphtha. That track is a nice biking route but quite tricky with lots of granite boulders (the track was bolted to the granite) and quite boggy.

China clay was extracted here (1912 - 1933) and after settling was transported in ceramic pipes down to be processed in the drying works at Cantrell near Ivybridge (now called The Clay Factory). The track leading here (known as the Puffing Billy locally) was used by a narrow gauge railway which transported workers between here and Bittaford. There are ruins nearby of a hostel where workers stayed.
