Crazywell Pool looking South to Down Tor
Park in designated places.
DON'T feed the ponies. It attracts them to the roads where they can be injured by traffic.
Follow the guidelines for your activity (available in Park offices).
Stick to paths.
During wet weather try and stay on hard tracks.
Always use stiles and gates to cross walls, DON'T jump over.
In dry weather the Moor can be a tinderbox, be careful with stoves and cigarettes.
Don't move stones, they are often part of an archaeological feature.
Follow signs around restoration sites.
Follow and keep to the Country Code
Take your litter home with you! It can be deadly to the animals if left on the moor and in all cases is just plain ignorant.
Please visit the Moor, but keep to the rules designed to protect the delicate environment:-
