Black Tor is a popular hiking trail located in Dartmoor National Park.

It offers stunning views and takes you on an 8.6-mile loop through beautiful moorland hills. The trail starts at Meldon Dam and follows the edge of Meldon Reservoir before ascending to Black Tor, High Willhays, and Yes Tor. Along the way, you'll encounter some challenging sections and cross several streams. The terrain can be a bit boggy at times, so make sure to wear appropriate footwear.

Overall, Black Tor is a great option for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a moderately challenging and picturesque hike.
