Dartmouth Common
Walk uphill from downtown Dartmouth to the Common for lawns, garden areas and a change in perspective above the ferry-side streets and busy harbourfront.
The Common brings breathing room to a Dartmouth visit and reveals the city's rise away from the water. Leighton Dillman Park provides a more garden-like focus within the larger open space. Spend time on the paths rather than treating the whole common land as one attraction, and use the visit as a quieter counterpoint to Alderney Landing.
What to look for
