Bodmin Moor is divided into a north and south section by the A30 trunk road, which passes over the centre of the Moor - between Launceston and Bodmin. The Highest point of the moor, "Brown Willy" and its neighbour "Roughtor" can be seen from the A30 as you approach The famous Jamaica Inn made famous by the Daphne du Maurier novel. Brown Willy at at 420m (1378 ft), is the highest point in Cornwall . The original name "Bronn Wennili", means "hill of swallows" but the old Cornish word has become distorted over many years to, Brown Willy. There are scenic walks around both Rough Tor ( pronounced router) and Brown Willy. The southern section of the moor is dominated by caradon Hill and the transmiter mast. To the North of the hill is the village of Minions. The heritage centr reflects the mining history of the area, in a landscape dominated by Engine houses and old workings. Tho the west of the village is the Hurlers, a unique collection of three stone circles. From the hurlers the track leads across the moor to the Cheesering and Stowes Pound ( see photos above) an Ironage Hillfort that overlooks the moor. The moor has numerous bell pits, where tin and copper have been quarried, as well as examples of Moor Stoning - cutting granite outcrops for building. This is a unique landscape that visitors to Cornwall should take time to explore. The Moor does has a tendency to "Fog Over" so any one walking the area should have a map and compass. Siblyback Lake provides watersports, the reservoir feature a 2 to 3 mile circular walk on level paths, as well as fishing, dingy sailing and water skiing. There is a cafe on site, as well as an child's play area.
