Devon
Coastlines, Moorland, River Valleys, and Historic Routes
From the cliffs and beaches of the north and south coasts to the upland landscapes of Dartmoor and Exmoor, Devon contains a diverse network of routes, landscapes, and places shaped by geology, rivers, and centuries of movement through the land. Trails such as the South West Coast Path, Two Moors Way, Tarka Trail, and Dartmoor Way reveal many of these environments, while landscapes including Dartmoor National Park, Exmoor National Park, East Devon National Landscape, and North Devon National Landscape showcase some of the county's most distinctive natural environments.
Long-distance routes pass through coastal landscapes, moorland, woodland, river valleys, farmland, and historic settlements, linking places that have shaped the character of Devon for generations. Together, these routes and landscapes reveal the character of the county while providing opportunities to explore at a slower pace through self-guided travel and independent exploration.
