Crane Hill
Devon
Crane Hill stands at 471 metres on the open moor, a quiet granite summit with views across the surrounding plateau and tors. The peak itself is gentle rather than dramatic, rising from bracken and heather with the characteristic granite outcrops of the high moor scattered across its slopes.
The walk here is accessible from several directions across unfenced moorland. The terrain is typical Dartmoor: boggy in places, firm underfoot in others, and open to weather. From the summit, the view spreads across central and northern Dartmoor, taking in distant tors and the moor's rolling character. There are no crowds and few formal paths, making it a good choice for walkers seeking solitude on the high ground.
