Accessible Dartmoor Walks

Stile free routes

Dartmoor National Park is here for everyone to enjoy and explore, no matter what your level of ability, needs or background.

Miles Without Stiles are stile-free routes, meaning that they are suitable for those with limited mobility. These routes are suitable for a wide range of users including those in all-terrain powered mobility scooters and families with younger children.

All routes are graded as suitable for some, for many or for all and have been checked by the Recreation and Access Team, working with Dartmoor Wheelchair Access Group.
