Exmoor National Park Coastal walks - Bank Holiday

Exmoor National Park Coastal weekend - Sunday 24th to Monday 25th August (bank Holiday Monday) 2025
​
Beaches, sea views, high cliffs, wild flowers and undulating coastal paths are the main sights of this Exmoor National Park event. I have taken my groups to the best coastal walks in Dorset, Devon and Cornwall, walked the entire 630 miles South West Coastal Path. Exmoor National Park is by far my favorite section with its unique breathtaking scenery. Exmoor coastal path is only 36 miles long and will we walk the best 18 miles of this magnificent National Park treasure within 2 days. The featured photo was from last year August in Exmoor.

I only have 8 FREE places for members that have access to a car. I can offer you Sunday 24 & Bank holiday 25th May. I can only send you essential details for the day hike i.e. walk description, meeting point & kit list but cannot provide any more assistance. You will need a car to get to the starting locations as there NO public transport.

I am also leading a “non Free” group from London for the whole weekend of Saturday 23th to bank holiday Monday 25th as part of this FREE meetup group. If you are interested in the “non free’ full 3 day programme (1 day in Dorset & 2 days in Exmoor National Park), just email michaelwk16@yahoo.com. Michael will organise all of the logistics: Transportation from London via cars, hotel and the 3 days of walking. Please note there are currently 15 members that have secured the 3 day event and only 3 places remaining.

You can email me via [michaelwk16@yahoo.com](mailto:michaelwk16@yahoo.com) for details on cost how to secure a place, please state whether you want the free event or the non free 3 days event. Please note Exmoor is over 300km from London and not suitable as a day event.

Proposed Schedule for the 3 days event - for the 2 day event the schedule would be the same excluding the Saturday.

For the non free event transportation is provided from London & return back to London. I will sort out all of the transportation logistics for the whole group. Organise the departure point, exchange drivers and members contact details in advance and ensure the drivers get to every location during the event on time.

No circular coastal routes: The beaches, sea, high cliffs and undulating coastal paths are the main sights of Exmoor & Dorset so the whole walking distance will be along the South West Coastal Path. Other walking groups will walk a circular route and finish back at the starting point. For this event to maximise the coastal experience we will have cars strategically parked at the finishing point of each walk which maybe up to 14 miles away from the starting point, ready to pick up the group after a long day’s walk. No other groups will do this as the logistics are complicated and time consuming for the drivers.
