With eleven sections covering 117 miles, the Two Moors Way is a coast-to-coast walking route boasting some of the most spectacular scenery in the South West of England. No matter if you start on the south coast of Devon, or begin in the north at Lynmouth, there are two National Parks and a million memories to be made along the way.
Designated in 1951, Dartmoor covers some 953 square kilometres, a captivating mix of atmospheric moorland, spectacular granite tors, prehistoric stone circles and rows, ancient pathways, medieval villages, iconic Dartmoor ponies, fascinating legends and vibrant villages with traditional events. No matter which section you’ll be taking on, it’ll be breathtaking.
25 miles across Exmoor National Park
in three stages
Exmoor National Park offers a vast diversity of landscapes as the moorlands give way to the sea with some of the highest coastal hills in England. The moorland landscape is different from that of Dartmoor’s granite heights: softer, more rounded hills support a patchwork of small hedged fields and wooded combes. It’s also Europe’s first International Dark Sky Reserve and is a great place to view wildlife.
