Before you set out

These routes are provided in good faith as a guide only. Dartmoor is open, largely unwaymarked country where weather and visibility change quickly. Parts of the moor lie within the military firing ranges (Okehampton, Merrivale and Willsworthy), where live firing happens on published dates, so always check the firing times before you set out. Our GPX files show the line of the route but may not include turn-by-turn waypoints, so carry the relevant OS map and a compass and know how to use them. You are responsible for your own safety and for checking access, tides and river crossings on the day. Our Dartmoor accepts no liability for loss, injury or inconvenience arising from use of these routes. Dartmoor firing times · Safety advice · Dartmoor Rescue

“I was going to a little world, isolated, away from the madding crowd, and with miles of wild moorland, and rushing streams, which whispered, the former of snipe, plover and woodcock, the latter of salmon and trout.”
Clifford Rickards, A Prison Chaplain on Dartmoor, 1920

Dartmoor quiz

“I once heard a woman tell one of her daughters, in a Dartmoor cottage, " to log the child's cradle." There, thought I, is a British word ; log means to rock, hence logging, or logan stone.”
