[title] => Haytor Circular
[content] => Distance: 6.5 miles (10.5 km)
Ascent: 800ft (240m)
We walk straight from our door and out onto the moors, descending through Haytor Vale to pick up the route and remains of a granite tramway once used to transport rock towards the coast. Crossing the moor, we’ll pass by ancient cairns, a Bronze Age settlement, tors, and quarries, including Haytor Quarry, once a noisy industrial site, now a peaceful haven for wildlife.

[title] => Tramway, Bowerman's Nose, and Haytor Rocks
[content] => Distance: 9.5 miles (15.5 km)
Ascent: 1,500ft (460m)
From our hotel, we head out across Dartmoor following the granite tramway past a Bronze Age settlement. We then head for Bowerman’s Nose, a distinctive tor said to resemble a local huntsman. We’ll visit an abandoned medieval village before crossing Becka Brook, as well as Holwell and Saddle Tors. Then it’s back to the hotel via Haytor Rocks and the serene ponds in Haytor Quarry.
