Located in the south west of England, Dartmoor is a deservedly famous moorland to enjoy and a great one to walk in particular. It’s popularity can be attributed to the variety the park has to offer: rolling lush hills, mystic woods with rivers passing through and fantastic granite features, also known as tors, that rise up out of the ground and often serve as markers for a lot of the hiking routes. Thanks in part to its acidic soils, the…
