This recreational route takes walkers through the varying landscape surrounding the High Moor. It passes alongside sparkling streams that tumble off the slopes, through beautiful wooded valleys and down deep and ancient drove roads that have been used by generations of travellers.

The route links charming villages and moorland towns where you’ll find welcoming hospitality to savour and enjoy. There's a great choice of accommodation, refreshments and meals at the cafés, pubs, tea rooms and village shops you pass along the way. The Dartmoor Way offers opportunities for all kinds of walking: In addition to the main circular route, there is the 22½ mile long High Ramblers and Long-Distance Walkers: Ramblers may wish to complete Moor Link. This allows the walker to follow a ‘figure of eight' route, or the entire circular route of 108 miles. Or the individual sections of 10 to alternatively enjoy either of the shorter north or south circular routes. 12½ miles are ideal for a day's walk. We'll be making certificates available for those who complete the whole circuit, and there will be progress stamps along the way. More details will be available on the website. Families: With waymarks to guide them out and back, families can follow any section of the route for short or longer distances with confidence. New to walking? Less experienced walkers will also find the waymarks ideal for short or longer distances, and the route can be accessed anywhere along the way. Access for all: There are some sections of route suitable for disabled access - see the website for details.
