The Perambulation of the Royal Forest of Exmoor
The Active Exmoor Perambulation is one of the most challenging walks in the Exmoor annual calendar.
In 1279 King Edward ordained the Sheriff of Somerset to firmly observe the perambulations of the Forest of Somerset afterwards called the Royal Forest of Exmoor.

Some twenty or so years ago the Exmoor Youth Association revived the Perambulation which is now an annual event taking place in mid-June.
During the 31 miles of cross county walking you will be taking in breathtaking views and accessing parts of the National Park not normally open to the public. You will also be participating in history as the Perambulation dates back over 725 years!
The weather is always a factor on Exmoor and the last few years have been hot adding an extra element to contend with on this, Exmoor's most challenging of walks.
You can find more details of this years Perambulation held on the 21st June here.
