The Two Moors Way Summary

The Two Moors Way by James Roberts

The Two Moors Way, created in the mid 1970s, runs for approximately 100 miles from Ivybridge on the southern edge of Dartmoor to the spectacular north Devon coastline at Lynmouth. James Roberts describes a walk full of contrasts - from remote walking across wild moorland to the gentle hill country of mid-Devon with pastures, copses and hedges. As well as covering the route in detail, the book includes information about places of interest both on and off the Way, together with details on accommodation and other useful addresses. Most walkers will probably finish the Two Moors Way in five days, if not distracted en route. However there is a wealth of distraction along (and just off) the way, and the author has laid out the book as six days' walking. As well as providing a worthy challenge for the long-distance walker, the Two Moors Way is an enriching experience, with its variety of fine landscapes, delightful villages and great wealth of history and prehistory encountered along the route.

About James Roberts

James Roberts finished work on his guide to Romania just before his untimely death in 2002. Since the revolution he had spent more than half of every year in Romania and had travelled throughout the country. An experienced solo backpacker here, as well as in the Himalaya, the Atlas and other areas, he worked as a leader of mountain-walking and wildlife groups. Married to Elena, a Romanian, James spoke the language and had an unrivalled knowledge of the country, having explored every massif solo on foot. With his detailed knowledge of the human and natural history of the country, he was an expert interpreter of the Romanian scene.
