Bodmin Moor
coast and countryside
Bodmin Moor is made up of large tracts of unenclosed moors and associated granite tors. The highest tors on the moor are Brown Willy and Rough Tor. They can be reached from any direction, although the most popular is from the Forestry Commission car park half a mile or so north of Rough Tor. The Forestry Commission own and manage some large areas of plantation woodland on the moor. The Cheesewring quarry above Minions is a popular feature with walkers and climbers. More information on the Tors and features on the Moor can be found in ‘Bodmin Moor 400 Million years in the Making’, a guide to the geology of the Moor.
