Meldon, Black a Tor Copse & Black Tor

From Meldon Reservoir car park the walk takes us across the dam,  alongside Meldon Reservoir to Vellake Corner, then follows the West Okement river to Black a Tor copse, where we stop for a coffee break. We then climb up to Black Tor, returning over Longstone Hill.

Typical Dartmoor walk, rough paths, ups and downs, stream crossings. The path along the West Okement river is very rough, in parts, the climb up to Black Tor is steep, and there is a steep descent down to Meldon quarry. Walking poles advised!

Please text leader to book on walk.
