Stunning view of the church

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

The views from both Great Links and Brat Tor are incredible. On a clear day you can see both the North Coast and South Coast as well as Bodmin Moor. The River Lyd stepping stone crossing is nice but there is still a wooden bridge crossing if you are a little unsteady on your feet.

The first impression of this simple but solidly crafted small sacred monument from 1887 is powerful and imposing. The lonely stone cross can be seen from afar thanks to its exposed location. The ancient, venerable cross is a natural part of this environment and one could almost think that it is literally growing out of the rock from which it rises to a proud height.

A fantastic view point which can be admired from the bike or you can take a short detour onto a trail to visit more closely.

Proper stop on loops out to Brent Tor or Lydford. The nobbly top of this tor is visible across south Dartmoor, and the church on top is open from Easter Sunday for services.

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 to stop and have a bite to eat with some amazing views down the valley

Black Tor is made from three different rocky outcrops and the view from up here is simply stunning. Especially to Sourton Tors and Shelstone Tor in the north west. Black Tor is known for its logan stone, the name given to a rock that sways when pushed. Logan stones have become separated from the rest of the rocks through erosion, but when 'logged' they pivot on a contact point and do not over balance. Logged means to roll around drunk in Cornish. The most famous logan stone in Cornwall is probably Logan Rock, near Treen, Penzance.

Built by William Widgery to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1887. It is made from 10 courses of granite blocks and is the tallest cross on Dartmoor.

Sourton Tor is a fine tor sitting in the north west corner of Dartmoor, high above the village of Sourton. There are 5 or 6 outcrops of rocks scattered over a wide area, one of which has an appearance of a crooked nose witch! There’s a trig point beside the highest of these outcrops, with brilliant views to the west and Cornwall. However there are also views into Dartmoor with Great Links Tor and Yes Tor also in view. There are plenty of parking places below this tor, use the road up to the water works for the best parking spots, making it an easy ascent from there. On the northern side of this tor is the old iceworks factory, used to produce ice in the winter months to help transport food. This tor is not in the military firing range although heading any further east (about a 1km) will put you into the Okehampton range.

Widgery Cross was erected on Bray Tor (also known as Brat Tor and Widgery Tor) by William Widgery to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1887. It is made from 10 courses of granite blocks and is the tallest cross on Dartmoor. The cross is almost 12ft 8 inches (3.86 metres) in height and has a span of 4ft 4 inches (1.32 metres), the words “W. Widgery, Fecit, Jubilee VR” are inscribed on the eastern side of the base stone. The cross is orientated on a east – west alignment. There is a free car park not far from the base of the Tor which can be reached by turning up a track which runs alongside the Dartmoor Inn on the A386. It is approximately a 40 minute walk to the top and very well worth the effort to see the wonderful views.

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.

This impressive jumble of granite rocks lies in the far north west of Dartmoor National Park. With high, open moorland to the south and east, and flatter, patchwork farmland to the west and north, Sourton Tors provide fantastic views. It's well worth hiking up to the summit from the numerous trails that go around the base, particularly on a clear day. Be mindful of the weather on the tors as well as on the open moor in general. Exposed, particularly from prevailing winds (and rain), the weather can turn quickly.

Not sure what the history of the cross is but lovely lovely place. The stone cross is also quite impressive!
