robkerly Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 hi. thinking of heading to dartmoor in the next week or two, can anyone suggest where the good spots are? I feel like i have seen many videos from there in the past, but dont know precisely where and dont want to spend the whole day driving about aimlessly. The only specific place I have come up with from a video is bonehill rocks, which looks worth a visit. Any other suggestions would be really appreciated. cheers peeps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Bone Hill has be far the most riding, is easily found and you can park right next to it Other east Dartmoor venues worth a visit would be: Hound Tor Saddle Tor If you end up further west down nearer Plymouth, then head up to Pork Hill and simply park up where ever and pick a tor! These will all entail a longer walk-in, but are all worth a visit Around Burrator Resovoir you've got Sheepstor, Combeshead Tor and Down Tor. All good for a laugh, but again a decent length of walk-in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robkerly Posted August 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 That's awesome, thanks Josh. Looks like a full days worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 You'll easily spend a day just at Bone Hill. If you were going to do 2 tors in one day, I'd go for Hound Tor (1/3rd of the day), followed by Bone Hill for the remaining 2/3rds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robkerly Posted August 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hooper I will try to avoid any suspicious stains. I don't find rocks affect me that way. Normally they make me bleed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 If you're looking to ride over the weekend at all then put up a post on the South West Trials FB group or send me a PM! So much riding up on Dartmoor it's ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
