On a gloriously sunny Saturday morning 34 walkers boarded a coach which the Two Moors Way Association had hired to take people from Lyndale car park in Lynmouth to Ashcombe car park in Simonsbath. The coach was full to capacity and so we met 8 more local people who had been too late to secure […]
We did our first through hike, after several years of planning and having to postpone. Possibly in the minority in going South, but it the end was much more familiar and made sense to go that way. Spilt the stages into Seven Days and it was just about okay. A mix of accommodation, camping on […]
My husband RICHARD started this with me (Liz) driving him between home – and start/finish points (for the first half, north to south). We are staying in Coleford (near Clannaborough) at The New Inn on 23 February 2023 with the intention of reaching Dartmoor ( Drewsteignton) the next day. Then we will return by car […]

I decided to walk north to south since I live in South Devon and could divert from the route towards the end in order to sleep at home a couple of nights. (I diligently walked back onto the route the following […]

I wrote a long essay about my trip at https://arcticjen.co.uk/2019/06/27/trip-report-two-moors-way-june-2019/ For those mainly after itinerary advice I’ll reproduce that section here: “I stayed at “proper” campsites every night, which required a certain amount of extra walking and/or variation on the waymarked route, as accommodation directly on route is somewhat limited. I started the […]
The third ‘Big Walk’ organised by the Two Moors Way Association (Nos. 1 & 2 appear as entries on this blog in April and September 2018) took place on Saturday 6 April and attracted more than 60 walkers – some travelling considerable distances to be part of the event. Given that it had rained continuously […]
