Get directions

White Ridge Tor consists of two small rocky outcrops on the side of White Ridge, near Fernworthy Forest. The best approach is from Stannon Tor via a grassy path, with views stretching across the southern moor and towards Ryders Hill. The lower outcrop also offers a view west towards the East Dart river and Higher White Tor. The area is free of military firing ranges, apart from a few miles north of Sittaford Tor.

Go deeper with Dartefacts

Dartefacts is a database of Dartmoor sites with far more close-up detail than we can show here, and it is the best place to go deeper. Dartefacts is free to use, and nobody has to pay to look things up. If you want more, a yearly subscription adds 10-figure grid references, map zoom down to 1:25,000 and lists to tick off the places you have visited, and it helps keep the site going. We would encourage you to subscribe.
