What to expect Elevation and geology: Granite tor forming a rocky outcrop that offers elevated views over the surrounding moor. Typical Dartmoor granite features, weathered by wind and rain into distinctive boulders and crags.

Great on a dry day

This stone circle from the Bronze Age, thousands of years before the beginning of the Christian era, is not as large and nowhere near as famous as the legendary "Stonehenge" (which is, after all, a UNESCO World Heritage Site; if you're interested, see => https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/960007 ), but this one can be visited without the tourist crowds that are typical there, and it also has a much more interesting-sounding name...

Get your lunch here, outside with a view:

Sticklepath stores and cafe. You can sit outside with your bike and watch the world go by. Home made cakes were ridiculously cheap, too, and happy to top up water bottles 🙂

West Mill Tor is an easy climb from the base of Yes Tor and offers fantastic views in all directions. A sizeable outcrop with various routes to climb to get to the top, varying from safe and simple to steep and trechuous. There is a small stream to cross at the base between Yes Tor and the ground can be waterlogged so will require abit of dry hopping or good footwear.

Near Fingle Bridge, if the need arises, there is also a very convenient public toilet.
