The Lynton to Countisbury loop offers a challenging yet rewarding hike through Exmoor National Park, known for its dramatic coastal scenery. You will encounter varied terrain, from rugged coastal sections and steep ascents to tranquil woodland paths and riverside routes. This moderate 5.6-mile (8.9 km) route involves 963 feet (294 metres) of elevation gain and typically takes around 2 hours and 42 minutes to complete, with breathtaking views from Butter Hill Summit, one of England's highest cliffs.
For your visit, be prepared for demanding sections; proper boots with good ankle support are highly recommended due to the rugged and sometimes slippery paths, especially in wet weather. You can make a pleasant stop at Watersmeet House, a former fishing lodge now operating as a National Trust shop and café. The trail is best enjoyed when you have a good fitness level, as some climbs, like the one up Countisbury Hill, are tough but offer incredible vistas.
This loop forms a significant and visually stunning segment of the South West Coast Path, Britain's longest National Trail. The route showcases diverse ecosystems, transitioning between dramatic cliff-top views, ancient woodlands like Horner's Neck Wood, and tranquil river valleys. You will also pass historical points such as the 18th-century St John the Evangelist Church in Countisbury and the ruins of a mineral water bottling plant at Lynrock Fountain.
