Welcometo the North Devon & ExmoorWalking FestivalThis is our tenth and also our largest walking festival. The last few years has seen a massive growth in participants enjoying the walks. Beautiful scenery with our friendly and knowl-edgeable guides is what attracts people to this walking festival. Exmoor offers some challenging walks while North Devon can provide the less testing walks. The spectacular South West Coast Path always thrills and gets the heart going.

We are also helping the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) celebrate their 50th anniversary. It covers the coastal strip from Combe Martin down to Welcombe on the Cornish border. We have some extra-special walks in that area for you.

I have also taken note of the request for car-free walks and so you will find a selection each day which are accessible by bus, train and Moor Rover minibuses on Exmoor.

Why not try one of our special guided walking holidays taking in the South West Coast Path and part of the Two Moors Way with transport and everything included.

I am sure you will find something to suit your ability. Enjoy your walks and look forward to seeing you.

Bryan Cath, Festival Coordinator

Walks for food loversFollowing the success of the walks that have included farmhouse lunches and cream teas, we have expanded on these to give more choice throughout the festival.

Supporting local produce and business is important to this festival. Walkers generally love their food, so the two go together well. I hope you will enjoy taking part in these walks.
