Hookney Down, Moretonhampstead, Dartmoor National Park

This is an area of moorland between, roughly speaking, Hookney Tor and Hameldown Tor and King Tor on the edge of the high moor near English Heritage's Grimspound.

It's particularly beautiful in late summer when the heather flowers. It runs into the vast whale's back of moorland that is Hamel Down that runs south to Widecombe-in-the-Moor.
