Tors & Landmarks

Bonehill Rocks

Devon

Bonehill Rocks is a low granite tor set on the open moorland of central Dartmoor. The rocks themselves are weathered and scattered, characteristic of the granite outcrops that dot this landscape. The tor occupies a quiet corner of the moor, away from the main tourist routes, making it a good waypoint for walkers exploring the plateau.

The approach is across heathland and grass typical of the moor's interior. From the tor, views extend across the rolling high ground and surrounding tors. It is a modest feature compared to Dartmoor's more prominent peaks, but it rewards quiet attention and sits naturally within the moor's weathered, granite character.
