Snappers Tor is a small tor that sits on the path between Norsworthy Bridge car park at Burrator and Down Tor. It’s a decent rocky outcrop that gives good views back down to Burrator Reservoir without requiring too much effort to get there, however the effort is rewarded by the views and this decent outcrop. This will be one tor that you visit on the way to elsewhere, whether it is on to Down Tor or round to Cuckoo Rock, there are plenty of other things to see in this area. There are no firing ranges near here.
