Exmoor Adventures

 
   

Walking & Hiking

Walking and Hiking  

Whether you are a seasoned walker or someone who prefers to stroll, Exmoor National Park is an ideally picturesque area to cover on foot. With over 1000km of footpaths and bridleways, taking you through woodlands, open heather covered moorland and by tumbling rivers, the variety is unique.

Many visitors to Butlins enjoy a walk and the network of narrow roads, bridleways and footpaths that cross the moor are perfect. These have been signposted by the National Park Authority (NPA) where they join roads and many are signposted and waymarked with coloured squares or arrows to help you find your way around.
