Smallacombe Rocks, Devon

Located in Haytor Vale, Devon, South West England, England
A rocky outcrop below Haytor Down in the eastern section of Dartmoor National Park
We'd particularly recommend exploring the area in Autumn. The colour of the bracken and trees with Houndtor Wood and Lustleigh Cleave are exceptional. We tend to walk the area in early October to take advantage of those Autumnal colours
To the west, you'll see Greator Rocks, Hound Tor (East Dartmoor) and Holwell Lawn. The latter is usually a carpet of bluebells in Spring
It's possible to walk to Smallacombe Rocks from either Black Hill or the spacious car parks at, or near, Haytor Centre
Tors in the local area include Haytor Rocks, Saddle Tor and Rippon Tor
Visit Widecombe in the Moor and Manaton. We'd also suggest you read our summary guide to Dartmoor National Park to learn more
Given that the views from Smallacombe Rocks are gorgeous we'd also suggest you browe our Top 10 Recommended Views in Dartmoor National Park for further inspiration
