Exmoor Walker

The Coast line of northern exmoor stretches for 34 miles in and out of the inlets between Minehead and Combe Martin. The convex hogback Exmoor seacliffs rise to over 1000ft above the beach hiding the coastal scenery below the southwest coastpath. This secret world is known as The Hidden Edge of Exmoor, a place where few have trod. A variety of sea birds and hawks inhabit the Exmoor cliffs, deer can also be found.

Exmoor’s seacliffs are the highest in England, the tidal range between high and low water is the second highest in the world creating currents that are visible around the foot of the headlands. Huge caves and waterfalls of 200ft + can be visited, and natural arches explored.

The Exmoor cliffs are rich in minerals. Disused mines and limekilns can be found in the remote western section of the Exmoor cliffs. Recent landslips provide the opportunity to hunt for fossils and minerals.

Guided walks on Exmoor and guided descents of the cliffs are available, unfortunately you must be over 18 and reasonably fit with some basic scrambling experience to take part in guided descents / ascents of the Exmoor cliffs. The Exmoor coast traverse is not the southwest coastpath
