Zeal Tor Tramway Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Lovely open moorland. Doable on a gravel bike in either direction especially if dry but it’s very much not a smooth track. A classic Dartmoor way - decent in places but varying between bog and rutted boulders for the rest.

Redlake China Clay Settling Tanks

Highlight • Historical Site

Part of the old China clay works at Redlake. Disused since the 1930s, most of the old structures were blown up by the army- which explains the piles of concrete rubble still present at Redlake.

Black Tor

Slightly tanned footpath along the babbling river dart along with many small waterfalls and pools. Good footwear is required for the last stretch up the heath. Wonderful view
