Down Tor

Grid ref: SX 5803 6939

Down Tor is a prominent tor on Dartmoor, offering superb views across Burrator Reservoir. It's known for its huge granite slabs, some balanced precariously on older deposits, and the nearby Down Tor stone row. The climb from Burrator can be a bit confusing with false summits, but the effort is well worth it for the views.
