Exmoor National Park

Exmoor National Park is one of the smaller national parks of England and Wales, covering 267 square miles or 693 square km. It is situated in the counties of Devon and Somerset on southwest England. The town of Exeter is 40 km (25 miles) to the south and Taunton is 20 km (13 miles) from the eastern boundary. The park contains a variety of magnificent landscapes. To the north, the moorland terminates in towering cliffs above the Bristol Channel. Rocky headlands, steep wooded ravines, plunging waterfalls, and jumbled heaps of fallen rock make this an area of outstanding scenic beauty.
