Teign Gorge

To the north of the Park and close to the ancient stannary town Chagford and the pretty village Drewsteignton. The National Trust's Castle Drogo is at the mouth of the gorge.

If you've been told that Dartmoor's bleak then spend a weekend exploring the Teign Gorge. Cut by the River Teign, there's a top walk along the gorge from Chagford. In Spring and Autumn, it's particularly stunning.

Within the gorge, we'd recommend visiting Fingle Bridge and across the way from Castle Drogo is the superb Whiddon Park (Deer Park).

Plan a weekend break to Chagford to explore the Teign Gorge.

If this is your type of thing, try also the Dart Gorge and Lustleigh Cleave, Tavy Cleave and the wooded valleys around Burrator Reservoir.
