The Two Moors Way is a long-distance walking route between Ivybridge on the southern edge of Dartmoor and Lynmouth on the North Coast of Exmoor, comprehensively waymarked except on the open moorland sections. It has a total length of 102 miles (163 km), making it an ideal week's walk.

The Way links the only two National Parks in southern England, and crosses both of them north-south. Not surprisingly, it passes through landscape of exceptionally high quality. Not only does this include the high moorland of some of the Dartmoor and Exmoor sections, but also the deep and wooded valleys of the moorland edges and between the moors, unspoilt rural scenery with a remote and tranquil feel difficult to find elsewhere in modern times. Walking mostly not difficult, but one or two strenuous stretches; some unwaymarked open moorland requiring navigational skills.

The ideal way to walk the Two Moors Way is to leave the car at home and use public transport to access the route. Bus services may be used to reach both ends of the route, Ivybridge and Lynmouth. Ivybridge may also be reached by train from Plymouth. In addition, Morchard Road, at the centre of the route, is on the Exeter-Barnstaple branch rail line.
