Dartmoor: A Stroll on Hookney Down

Hookney Tor

There are occasions where I hate planning walks because I don't know where to go. Dartmoor is so huge it can become overwhelming at times. I had planned Higher White Tor from Postbridge and then, last-minute, decided to plan a route from Hart Tor on the North Moor - but I soon realised that this would entail the crossing of multiple fords which I wanted to avoid. Somehow, driving towards Postbridge anyway, I chose Hookney Down on the basis that it is an easy walking area full of interesting items.

Dartmoor: Some Tors and Rocks on the Hameldown Ridge

Pony on King Tor

The Hameldown Ridge is a marvellous location, both for views and peace. It also offers much more, whether you like history, or, as in my case, Tor Bagging. This broad granite ridge has a lot to see and do.
