Tors & Landmarks

Roundhill

Devon

Roundhill is a small granite tor rising from the open moorland of central Dartmoor. Its rounded summit gives little drama but offers clear views across the surrounding heather and grass, with the broader landscape of the moor stretching in all directions. The approach is across typical moorland terrain, making it an accessible destination for walkers of mixed ability.

Like many of Dartmoor's smaller peaks, Roundhill sits within a landscape shaped by granite geology and centuries of open moorland use. The walk here rewards you with solitude and the quiet character of the moor itself, rather than dramatic scenery. It is a good choice for those exploring the central plateau on foot.
