Houndtor Wood, Devon
- Located in Manaton, Devon, South West England, England
- The River Bovey flows south east past the pretty village North Bovey on its way to Bovey Tracey and the Devon coast beyond. To its north, between North Bovey and Bovey Tracey, is Lustleigh Cleave. To its south, partly, is Houndtor Wood. It's a beautiful place
- The Dartmoor Way runs through the wood and we'd recommend exploring the area beginning at the car park at the eastern end of Trendlebere Down. The first thing you'll notice when you arrive at that car park is the long view across Hundtor Wood and Lustleigh Cleave. Amazing. Follow the path around the side of Trendlebere Down or, alternatively, head down to the river
- If you have time, and a lot of energy, continue into Lustleigh Cleave and climb up to its ridgeline for views from Harton Chest and Hunter's Tor (Lustleigh Cleave)
- In the local area, visit Manaton, Bovey Tracey, Becky Falls Woodland Park, walk up to Black Hill and discover Bowerman's Nose on Hayne Down
- The eastern section of Dartmoor National Park, around Holwell Tor and Hound Tor (East Dartmoor), offers great views of Houndtor Wood and Lustleigh Cleave
