Smerdon Down Tors

Smerdon Down Tors sits on the central plateau of Dartmoor, a weathered granite outcrop that commands good views across the open moor in all directions. The tor itself is modest in height but characteristic of Dartmoor's granite landscape, with broken rocks and rough ground around its summit.

The walk here is easy going, across typical moorland terrain from the accessible surroundings. It is a quiet spot, less visited than the named tors further south, making it a good choice for walkers wanting to explore the quieter reaches of the high moor without crowds.
