Overview

Walk in association with the Dartmoor Preservation Association.

The walk will explore Prewley Moor, Sourton Tors and Lake Down. We will visit a Bronze Age stone circle, not shown on OS maps, a disused apple crusher and a short-lived enterprise the Ice Works on the northern flank of Sourton Tor. The walk will have some short ascents and will use the Granite Way and moorland paths.
