Tors & Landmarks

Flat Tor

Devon

Flat Tor rises to 540 metres on the open plateau of central Dartmoor, its name reflecting its character. The summit is crowned with weathered granite, typical of the moorland tors, and the approach across boggy grassland and heather gives a real sense of being out on the high moor.

From the top, the views sweep across the surrounding moorland and distant ridges. It is a straightforward walk from nearby car parks, making it accessible for those exploring this part of Dartmoor. The tor's quiet, undramatic profile makes it an easy point to navigate to and from, rewarding with clear air and open horizons.
