The Classic Guide

Things To Do near Lynton

 
Lynton sits on the north Devon cliffs, sandwiched between the sea and Exmoor National Park. 500 feet directly below Lynton is its sister village, Lynmouth; the two are joined by a unique water-powered funicular cliff railway. Natural beauty is everywhere you look in this stunning part of Devon; the coastline here is glorious, while inland Exmoor’s valleys, rivers, waterfalls and hills create an inspiring, wild landscape.

Valley of the Rocks
A truly dramatic landscape that has to be seen to be believed. Over many thousands of years, the elements have chiselled the sandstone, slate and limestone rock into strange and precarious formations. The Valley of the Rocks sits near the edge of Exmoor, where moorland plunges into cliffs to meet the sea, making for some superb walking. Start at the coastal town of Lynton, to the east of the Valley, for a circular five mile ramble that takes in moors, clifftops and stunning views across the Valley and out to sea. Don't forget to pack a picnic.
