Postbridge Clapper Bridge
Highlight • Historical Site
There has been a bridge here since the 1300s, possibly earlier. However, the first written record of the bridge only appears from 1655. The bridge's slabs are over four metres long and two metres wide, meaning that a small car can easily pass. Access from the road is no longer possible since the construction of a newer, wider bridge.

Bellever Tor
Highlight • Summit
I almost always hike in from the North, coming from Postbridge which is a nice steady climb all the way to the base of this beautiful Tor.
Also to be noted that the nice wide path allows pushchairs and I myself have pushed my 4 yo to the top of Bellever Tor so we could play on these rocks together.

Wistman's Wood
Highlight • Forest
Due to the large boulders and twisted roots, there is no path per se and you will need to be game for a little scrambling. Once inside, the all-consuming air of magic and wonder is undeniable.
