Holwell Rocks

Grid ref: SX 7391 7769

Holwell Rocks is a small but distinctive tor of two main granite piles, located on the road between Hound Tor car park and Harefoot Cross. It's often overlooked by visitors heading north towards Jay’s Grave and Hound Tor. The views from here look east to Haytor and the surrounding tors, and in late spring, Holwell Lawn below offers one of the best bluebell displays on Dartmoor.
