About Rough Tor
Rough Tor (pronounced “row-tor”) rises to around 400 metres above sea level on north Bodmin Moor. Its summit is crowned with weathered granite stacks, and the slopes are scattered with Bronze Age hut circles and field systems.
The tor is cared for by the National Trust, and from the top you can see across the moor to Brown Willy, Cornwall’s highest point.
