Abbey Bridge and Weir

Highlight • Historical Site

This gorgeous 18th-century bridge is one of several in the heart of Tavistock but is perhaps the prettiest. The River Tavy rushes underneath to pass down the weir, creating a series of little waterfalls in lush surroundings.

The bridge features both on the Dartmoor Way cycle route and National Cycle Network Route 27.

Rundlestone Climb (100 Greatest Climbs #11)

Highlight • Natural Monument

Rundlestone is a 5.3 mile climb with an average gradient of 4.2%. It is an undulating climb though with the max gradient hitting 10% at Pork Hill and some serious downhill to follow.

It sits at number 11 in Simon Warren's book of the 100 Greatest Climbs in the UK.
