Hart Tor
Devon
Hart Tor stands on the open moorland of central Dartmoor, a granite peak of modest height but characteristic form. The tor's stone outcrops are typical of Dartmoor's weathered granite character, shaped by thousands of years of exposure to moorland weather. From the summit, the view spreads across the plateau in all directions, taking in the surrounding tors and the broad sweep of open moor.
The walk to Hart Tor is accessible from several approaches across the moorland. The terrain is open and generally straightforward, though the moor is pathless and can be boggy in places after rain. This is rewarding moorland walking rather than a difficult climb, giving a sense of the moor's scale and emptiness while remaining within reach of most walkers.
