About Dartmeet

Dartmeet, a place where the West Dart and East Dart rivers converge, marks a significant meeting point on Dartmoor. It lies 9.1 km west-north-west of Ashburton (from Ashburton: bearing 290°T, OS grid SX 671 731), and is situated north-west of Holne village. The waters here, often a lively grey-green, speak of the moor's ancient granite heart, their currents swirling around ancient stepping stones that have doubtless felt the tread of countless generations. The air, sharp with the scent of peat and heather, carries a profound sense of wildness, a reminder of Dartmoor's enduring, untamed spirit. Though small, Dartmeet is a vital crossroads, a place where routes across the vast expanse of the moor converge, offering a brief, elemental respite from the elements. The light here can be extraordinary, especially when it breaks through the often-brooding clouds, painting the landscape in fleeting, luminous hues.
