the tarr steps
DESCRIPTION

Visiting Tarr Steps is like stepping into a piece of ancient history nestled within the breathtaking landscape of Exmoor National Park. This remarkable clapper bridge, the longest of its kind in Britain, is believed to date back to medieval times - or possibly even earlier. As you wander down to the bridge, you’ll find yourself surrounded by the serene beauty of the River Barle and its wooded valley, home to diverse wildlife and the famous Exmoor ponies.
Whether you’re an avid walker or just looking for a peaceful retreat, the area offers scenic trails, including a circular route that lets you explore both sides of the river. And if you’re intrigued by folklore, legend has it that the Devil himself built the bridge and once forbade anyone from crossing - until a brave parson stood his ground.
