Dartmoor National Park Essentials
Il Dartmoor National Park presenta un paesaggio selvaggio definito da tors granitici come Haytor e Hound Tor, insieme ad antichi siti archeologici tra cui l'insediamento dell'Età del Bronzo di Grimspound e lo Scorhill Stone Circle. La storia dell'area è preservata nelle rovine medievali del Castello di Okehampton, nell'attiva Abbazia Benedettina di Buckfast e nel Castello Drogo, l'ultimo castello costruito in Inghilterra. Iconici punti di riferimento come il Fingle Bridge del XVII secolo e il remoto Warren House Inn offrono scorci del patrimonio culturale e dell'endemico isolamento della brughiera.
