view from the car park

A good wide gravel track for gravel/mountain bike, not really suitable for road bike. Great views.

Bellever Tor is a hill near Postbridge in Dartmoor. It feels a bit like something from Lord of the Rings...

In the vast landscape of Dartmoor (a name, incidentally, that avowed fans of English crime novels from the literature of this genre will recognize as a rather dark/spooky place), where prominent landmarks are largely lacking, the small sacred monuments erected many centuries ago impressively shape the landscape. The hard granite stone typical of the region, from which the cross was carved—with comparatively short branches that are little more than a suggestion—defenses wind and weather.

lovely graded trail from princetown to burrator

stunning views with a minimal hill to walk up!

Also known as Siward's Cross, Nun's Cross is one of many granite stone crosses across Dartmoor. The cross sits at the junction of two major tracks; the Abbots’ Way and the Monks’ Path, which link abbeys at Buckfast with Tavistock and Buckland. The cross stands close to Nun's Cross Farm, which can be seen from the junction. Although the meaning behind its more common name is unknown, the word Siward is carved into the stone, which is thought to refer to the Saxon Earl Siward, who once was a landowner around Tavistock.
