According to the calculations of archaeologists, people settled on the territory of Dartmoor for 2000 years BC. There you can find altars, mysterious stone circles, bridges, and menhirs. These are high stone pillars that the ancient inhabitants put on the site of graves.

Centuries later, small towns were built on the territory of Dartmoor. You can even see the ruins of castles. Ruins of the castle and the setting sun... this is amazing!

And the wild wastes around were used for hunting! By the way, the animals that were hunted by the inhabitants of the middle ages still roam the plains and hills of Dartmoor. For example, rare bird species hide in heath. And Dartmoor ponies walk through the green herds.
