Tors & Landmarks

Buttern Hill

Devon

Buttern Hill is a small granite tor rising from the central moorland, unremarkable in height but characteristic of Dartmoor's scattered high points. The tor commands views across open ground, with the moor stretching in all directions through typical heather and grass.

The walk to Buttern Hill is undemanding, across accessible moorland with no technical scrambling. It sits within easy reach of the network of paths that cross this part of the moor, making it a natural stop on a longer walk rather than a destination in itself.
