Great on a dry day

Easy Trek from Row Tor car park. One water crossing. At higher flow haters are need.

The Black-a-ven Brook flows from southwest of East Mill Tor to join the East Okement River at Cullever Steps. If you follow the brook upstream you will head into the Okehampton Range, so watch out for the red flags and check the live firing times before you do. It's all within Dartmoor National Park.

a little detour off the gravel path to find a little natural weir and a bit of a pool for the dog to cool off

Amazing tranquility

A rocky, paved ford which passes through the East Okement River and the Black-a-ven Brook.

Belstone Tor is the highest point amongst a collection of tors in the area. From the peak, you will be afforded some of the finest views the National Park has to offer. The view overlooks the picturesque village of Belstone and stretches north across almost all the tors of Dartmoor. It even reaches the Devon coast on a clear day!

Pretty ford crossing over East Okement River.

During the spring months, you'll be treated to a wonderful display of blooming bluebells against a backdrop of beautiful Dartmoor scenery.

Sticklepath is a quintessential Dartmoor village that lies in the northern boundaries of the National Park. The village is home to Finch foundry, the last remaining water-powered forge in England, that once made fine tools for West Country farmers and miners.

Wonderful for a wild swim

Belstone Tor sits the highest on the ridge between Oke Tor and Tors End Tor. You can see all the way to the north Devon coast on a clear day

Just below Belstone Tor, Higher Tor is huge. The granite rocks extend across the hillside and give a glimpse into the past when the whole of the area would have been strewn with rock. Running up here you'll find rewarding views across to Yes Tor in the West and Cosdon Hill in the east.

Most people only pass here on the way to Belstone or Higher Tor but make sure you appreciate the wild beauty of Winter Tor too. Even though its not at the top of anything, there are stunning views to East Mill Tor. Check out the southern side of the rocks too as you will find an old military telephone point hidden in the granite.

Take the ford or the bridge, depending on how dry you want your feet to stay. This is an old military road so the ford was once used by gun carriages. You can see the remnants of the paving on either side of the water. It also makes a lovely wild swimming spot if you are looking to combine both running and dipping.

Sometimes called Cawsand Beacon or Cosdon Hill, Cosdon Beacon was once thought to be the highest peak on Dartmoor. Willhayes has since taken the crown but that doesn't take away the immenseness of this spot. Bronze Age settlements have been found on the west of the hill and evidence of neolithic tools. It is peppered with cairns and kistvaens which shine a light on the historic importance of the site. On a clear day both the English and Bristol Channels can be see from high up here.

From the top of the rocks there are 360 degree views atop Oke Tor. Look west to the summits of Yes Tor and Willhayes, the two tallest peaks on Dartmoor. Oke Tor sits within the Dartmoor Military Range. It is sometimes shut for military exercises so please check the website before you travel to ensure access is open. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dartmoor-firing-programme

Steeperton Tor is often passed over as it doesn't have the rocky outcrops which make Dartmoor tors such landmarks. Don't dismiss these tors as they still offer beautiful vistas and are often much quieter than their rocky counterparts. Steeperton Tor is a popular wild camping spot and it's easy to see why. The tor cuts away to both the east and the west, to Steeperton Gorge, so there are fantastic sunrises and sunsets up here.

Legend tells of a couple out walking on the moor who encountered the local Pixies (Piskies) who brought down a mist to prevent them from finding their way. After much walking around in circles, the couple found a well and partook of the waters. This instantly broke the Piskies' spell, and they could make their way down to Okehampton. In gratitude, the couple erected a cross by the well, so that anyone could find it, take the water and dispel the Piskies' spells. The well itself is now covered in granite slabs, but the cross is still there.
