Kennon Hill

Grid ref: SX 6425 8934

Kennon Hill sits on Dartmoor's western edge, marked by a modest cairn at its summit. The approach is boggy and challenging, with the best route from Hound Tor. Views from the top sweep west into High Dartmoor, and the area is steeped in local lore, including a wartime story of a pilot rescued on the hill. It's a quiet, featureless summit with a strong sense of place.
