The most captivating views from Three Barrows are in front of you, where the South Hams coast stretches out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turning clockwise, slightly west, you can see Hillson\u2019s House on Stalldown, standing sentinel above the River Erme. Further north-west, you\u2019ll spot the distant tors of North Hessary and Great Mis, adding to the rugged landscape.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking north, you can see as far as Fur Tor and Cut Hill, some 13 miles away. These prominent features mark the expansive moorland that characterizes Dartmoor\u2019s dramatic scenery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To the north-east, Eastern White Barrow looms above the infant Bala Brook. Continuing towards the east, much closer to where you are, stands Wacka Tor on the ridge, declining to Corringdon Ball.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, turning south, you can see Ugborough Beacon, Butterdon Hill, and Sharp Tor, each appearing insignificant from this elevation, yet contributing to the vast, varied landscape.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About the landscape: flora and fauna<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The rocks around Three Barrows are mainly granite, and as with the other Tors in the area, typically has as many as 60 species of lichen covering much of the rock surface.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The land here is high moorland.\u202f It is on the very southern edge of the two high and remote plateaus that make up Dartmoor, separated by the Dart Valley.\u202f\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These large areas of grasses, heather and blanket bog have a network of streams and mixed valley mires cutting through them (the water that drains off the moorland is the source of many of the major rivers in Devon).&nbsp; This mix provides rich and important habitats for some distinctive wildlife:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upland areas you can see are dominated by dwarf shrubs; heather, bilberry, cross-leaved heath and western gorse, and grasses including purple moor grass and bristle bent grass.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" src=\"https:\/\/getoutside39507958bf.blob.core.windows.net\/blobgetoutside39507958bf\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/adobestock_319324250.jpg\" alt=\"Cross-leaved heath plant in flower\" class=\"wp-image-5996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/adobestock_319324250.jpg 850w, https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/adobestock_319324250-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/adobestock_319324250-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Cross-leaved heath<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be able to spot some of the animals and insects that make their home here &#8211; the adder and common lizard, red grouse, raven, meadow pipit, and stonechat.
