The spectacular landscape of the Lynton area, where Exmoor meets the sea,
lends itself to superb walking. Lynton itself is on the South West Coast
Path, but also, together with its twin town of Lynmouth, forms the northern
terminus of the Two Moors Way. This outstanding walking route spans
Devon south to north, crossing both Dartmoor and Exmoor and also the
lesser-known areas between. With a link from the Two Moors Way to the
South Devon coast at Wembury, a Devon Coast to Coast walk has been
created with Lynton or Lynmouth the northern starting or finishing point. |

The
beautiful and picturesque Harbour which opens out

vinicular,will take you to Lynmouth
How It Began
In the 19th century, the high cliffs separating Lynton from Lynmouth were a major obstacle to economic development. The twin villages mainly relied on sea transport because land travel was extremely difficult over Exmoor. Coal, lime, foodstuffs and other essentials arrived at Lynmouth in sailing vessels, but this freight had to be carried by packhorses or in horse drawn carts up the steep hill to Lynton.
