Dunkery Beacon is the highest point on Exmoor at 1705ft. Its owned by the National Trust and managed as a nature reserve. A footpath leads to the top with spectacular views (picture opposite looking towards Wales).

Tarr Steps: A mediaeval stone clapper bridge across the river Barle. Popular beauty spot with a pub and cream tea shop where you can sit outside in the summer. Legend has it that the devil built the bridge and owns the sunbathing rights on the stones, so beware!
