Whatever the weather, Dartmoor in Devon holds an atmosphere unique in the UK. Abundant wildlife is all around, stunning vistas will challenge you to keep your eyes on the trail and the ghosts of past inhabitants haunt the landscape. Bronze age settlements, standing stones, ancient crosses and the relics of a once thriving tin industry, all tell stories without words. Stunted oaks grow impossibly through granite boulders beside babbling brooks in a landscape more Middle Earth than planet earth. Combine it all with miles of sweet, technical singletrack and you have the perfect playground for your ideal MTB holiday. |
