The Teign Gorge

• Located in Chagford, Devon, South West England, England
• The Teign Gorge is a stunning wooded valley by the National Trust's Castle Drogo and Gardens located towards the northern border of Dartmoor National Park
• The River Teign runs along the valley floor as it flows from the high moors down to the Devon coast at Teignmouth
• Tors and attractions within the Teign Gorge include Hunter's Tor, Sharp Tor and Fingle Bridge
• A section of the Dartmoor Way runs along the valley floor and a short stretch of the Two Moors Way cuts around the high valley side
• Extremely popular at weekends/during holiday periods, we'd recommend starting from the parking area at Fingle Bridge Inn by Fingle Bridge. It gets very busy, so if you're exploring the area in those times, be patient
• We'd also recommend lunch or a drink in the ancient stannary town of Chagford or the pretty village of Drewsteignton, both of which are close by
• Other wooded valleys on the fringes of Dartmoor National Park include Lustleigh Cleave and Lydford Gorge and Waterfall, Belstone Cleave and Canonteign Falls. The Dart Gorge by Ashburton is a joy
