Exmoor
Wild moorland stretches meet dramatic coastlines in England's least tamed national park.
Exmoor moves to the rhythm of weather and wildlife, where red deer emerge from morning mist and ponies graze unfenced hills. The landscape shifts from heather-covered heights to hidden valleys carved by rushing streams, all beneath skies that change by the hour. This is walking country that rewards slow exploration with unexpected encounters.
