Wistman's Wood Circular Walk is a magical walk through a mystical ancient forest in Dartmoor National Park.

This enchanting hike takes you through gnarled oak trees covered in moss and lichen, creating a fairytale-like atmosphere. The trail winds through rocky terrain and offers stunning views of the surrounding moors, making it a perfect blend of nature and mystery. It's a must-do for anyone seeking a unique and unforgettable outdoor experience in the heart of Dartmoor National Park.

Over the years, the woods have become a popular attraction so please take heed of the signs and don't walk through the forest but around it.

Please note the trail can be VERY boggy in winter so wear appropriate footwear, but if you get a snow day, it's a magical place to visit!
