Amicombe Hill

Devon

Amicombe Hill, known locally as the Devil's Dome, rises to 584 metres and ranks as the sixth highest peak in Devon. It sits in the quieter northern reaches of Dartmoor, a substantial summit that commands views across the open moor and surrounding country.

The hill's granite character is typical of Dartmoor's high ground. It is accessible to walkers exploring this part of the moor, offering the kind of broad moorland setting that makes Dartmoor walking distinctive. The approach is open moorland, and the summit rewards with perspective on the landscape that spreads in all directions.
