This landmark is located next to the Cheesewring Quarry (which provided the granite cladding for the structure of Tower Bridge in London) and is surrounded by other granite formations. In the late 19th century, this landmark was threatened with destruction due to its proximity to blasting operations, but was saved through local activism.

Kit Hill sits high above the Tamar Valley, overlooking the river and the valley it formed. The hill boasts a wide array of history, including 18 burial mounds, neolithic and bronze-age barrows, as well as pointers towards Cornwall's more contemporary mining history.

The Hurlers are three stone circles on the edge of Bodmin Moor. Legend has it that these were Cornish Hurler players, caught out on a Sunday and punished. They are thought to date to between 2,100 & 1,500 BCE.

The Cheeswring is a granite tor on the south-east edge of Bodmin Moor. It's a naturally formed structure, although the local legends say it was formed in a contest between giants and saints. Granite from the quarry below was used to clad Tower Bridge.

Easy access from car park

Legend has it the pipers were turned to stone for playing on the Sabbath. They tried to make an escape but didn't manage to get away. Others say they mark the spot where Howel and King Aethelstan stood facing each other before battle in the 10th century.

This impressive granite tor sits at 1,299 feet high (396 m) on the rugged edge of Bodmin Moor. This region's main industry used to be mining and the flanks of the tor are littered with its remnants including a disused railway to the south. You can clamber atop the granite if you're comfortable doing so and the weather is conducive. Take care to avoid slipping and don't leave your camera at the bottom: the views are wonderful.

Another trig pointed Marilyn but nothing to write home about. A pretty part of the world no less. A 2.5 mile (4 km) windy stroll up Kit Hill 1,095 feet (334 m) near Tavistock before the wind and rain starts in earnest.

Worth walking round these ancient stones - Bronze Age (c 1500 BC) consisting of a set of 3 standing stone circles.

Britain has tens of thousands of stone circles (the largest being Avebury, which encircles an entire Wiltshire village), but the trio of circles known as the Hurlers is one of our favourites to walk to. High on Bodmin Moor, near the village of Minions, the three circles are thought to be all that remains of a group of boys who went out to play the traditional game of hurling one Sunday, instead of going to church – and were turned to stone for their sacrilege. According to local legend, it’s impossible to count the same number of stones twice.

Nice but vicious climb for cyclists. Fantastic panoramic views.

Great view over the moor to the coast

Off the beaten track, yet still on the path. That's how you could describe a hike in Bodwin Moor. A worthwhile loop leads from Minion past the stone circles, up to the Cheesewring, and then on to Sharp Tor. From there, it's a direct route to Kilmar Tor. The most famous tor in Bodmin Moor is the Cheesewring. Unlike the stone circles, it was formed naturally by millennia of erosion. A precise route description is only partially necessary. It's usually sufficient to simply follow a direct line toward the next waypoint. You should only be careful around the grazing cows on the raised moor and pass them with respect and at a suitable distance.

Off the beaten track and still on the way. So you could describe a tour on the Kilmar Tor. A rewarding round leads from Minion coming past the stone rings, up on the Cheesewring and further on the Sharp goal. From there it goes in direct line to the Kilmar gate. Detailed directions are required only conditionally. Normally, it is sufficient to simply orient yourself in the direction of the next waypoint. Careful you should only be with the grazing cows on the moor and this pass with respect and appropriate distance.
