Lynton and Lynmouth Maps and Orientation
(Lynton and Lynmouth, North Devon, England, UK)
The twin towns of Lynton and Lynmouth lie alongside each other, in the county of Devon and on the northerly shore of Exmoor. Lynmouth enjoys a gorge setting and straddles the meeting point of the East Lyn River and the West Lyn River, while Lynton stands some 210 metres / 690 feet above and is connected by a famous, historic cliff railway.
Lynton and Lynmouth provides the perfect base to properly explore North Devon and Exmoor, and offers a variety of popular walking trails, which often take in sumptuous views of the coastline, surrounding undulating moorland scenery and famous Exmoor ponies. The beachfront is full of life during the summer months, and tends to be where most people head first.
