Yar Tor

Grid ref: SX 6784 7400

Yar Tor is a quiet, characterful tor with a unique spiral cairn on a low outcrop. It sits near the road between Ashburton and Dartmeet, offering fine views from the summit. To the north, impressive granite outcrops overlook Badgers Holt, and small rock shelters provide shelter from the wind. A short walk from a decent car park makes it accessible for a quick visit.
