Little Mis Tor

A decent pile of granite on this tor, however with its Great neighbour sitting a few hundred metres beyond most people heading up the main path will ignore this one and carry on to Great Mis Tor. Views to the south towards Plymouth are fantastic and personally I’ve always found Little Mis Tor to be a more welcoming place than its Great cousin due to its more compact nature. The Merrivale firing range begins at Great Mis Tor to the north.
