Parked on road to SW at SX725821 before walking up lane past Easton Farm cottages. Once past fields took feint path next to fence and headed N through bracken and broom to rocky outcrop them onwards to summit. Lovely late afternoon walk in sunshine. I was wearing shorts and just about got away with it!

Excellent views on a clear day. Wish I'd read the comments below about parking first. I walked from Manaton!

Superb views and more superb views! The trig point is in good condition, though the plug has been filled in, and so have two of the holes along the bottom of the trig. But otherwise there is no visible sign of damage. The S is above the number on the flush bracket.

vgc, asphalt, BSM style FB. trig on low rocky tor, fine summit & view. Much of the gorse of 2002 has been burnt off: fairly easy ascent, but glad I wore boots & thickish trousers.

We parked at Easdon Cottages, having tried the other end of the bridle path to find nowhere to park the car. Followed a sheepy path up to the top. Wonderful views in all directions. Tarmac plug

Finally managed to drag the better half out and what a pleasant walk we had. There are some marvellous all round views from here. We managed to park quite close, by the nearest house to the SE, but it was tricky.

Bad hair day at Easdon Tor!

Took ages to find convenient place to park nearby with easy access. Once climbed up the hill though, views all around were excellent.
