Devon Coast to Coast – Two Moors Way
Starting in Wembury, in the beautiful South Hams, you will follow the 17 mile Erme-Plym Trail to Ivybridge where you will meet the Two Moors Way, a 100 mile waymarked trail from the South of Dartmoor to the North of Exmoor where it meets the sea in Lynmouth.
As well as the incredible views from the highpoints of the course, you will pass by many sites on the way: Grimspound stone circle, Fernworthy Reservoir, Chagford, The Teign Valley, Exe Head to name a few. The route even nips over the border into Somerset and back into Devon on Exmoor!
We will ensure you are looked after, with fully-stocked checkpoints including hot drinks and hot food when you need them most. We do however encourage the use of support teams to meet you at key locations on the non stop event.
The Route
The route follows a waymarked path, with some of the way markers brand new in the past few years. However, this does not mean the whole route is obvious and care should be taken when crossing fields, open sections of moor or following sections of road, especially at night. The route is available on Outdoor Active and can be followed using the app. A GPX file will also be available for those that would like to use GPS device. There are a few sections of open moorland, where navigation will be required. Harvey produce an excellent map which covers the original Two Moors Way from Ivybridge to Lynmouth and is available to buy here:
