About Vixen Tor

,Vixen Tor is a massive granite tor formation near Merrivale, historically famous for having some of Dartmoor's finest trad routes and boulder problems. The rock character features high-quality, crystalline granite with steep vertical walls, sharp crimps, and pristine vertical crack systems. Facing all cardinal directions across its towering blocks, aspect varies, and open moorland breezes ensure fast drying after rain. The crag historically hosted classic trad climbs and bouldering options across all grades, including celebrated historical testpieces. Access essentials: the tor is situated on private land and access has been strictly banned by the landowner for many years with no public access permitted. The crag remains completely closed to climbers until access agreements change."
