Dartmoor: The Official National Park Guide [ISBN 1 898630 12 7]

Dartmoor is often called the last great wilderness in southern Britain. Straddling south Devon from border to border, the Dartmoor National Park is a raised plateau of granite covering 368 square miles.  It is this granite which gives rise to the bare, jutting tors, one of the moor's most famous features.

Dartmoor is not only a wind moorland.  It has sheltered valleys, grasslands and wooded vales, taking in the region's flora and fauna, wildlife, culture and history.  

Each year Dartmoor National Park receives over 10 million visitors, drawn by this rich mix of wilderness and history.
