Somerset is a great destination to enjoy a walking holiday... perfect for lovers of the great outdoors. An infinite variety of splendid by ways, bridlepaths, towpaths and footpaths await, traversing high heather moor, low lying wetland, limestone gorge, farmland and coast. Ramble amid an abundance of flora, forna and wildlife, from tiny plants found only on the Somerset Levels to Britain's largest wild mammal, the magnificent red deer of Exmoor... just a fleeting glimpse brings a lump to the throat.
Wander over five ranges of hills, the Blackdowns, Mendips, Quantocks, Brendons and Poldens, each offers individual character and far reaching views. Dedicated walkers routes crisscross the Somerset countryside. The Cotswold Way and The South West Coast Path start in Somerset, the latter at Minehead .. gateway town to Somerset's heather clad crowning glory .. Exmoor National Park where you can escape in solitude amid 269 square miles natural garden of Eden.. paradise for walkers, cyclists and horse riders with hundreds of miles of pubic assess, spectacular scenery and sparkling streams. Somerset has beauty and space... it really is a wonderful county to explore on foot, bike or the back of a horse.
