Exmoor is one of the UK's great wilderness locations.

Within its 267 square miles there are open moorlands, wooded valleys and some of the most dramatic sea cliffs in the country.

Exmoor is home to some of Britain's biggest and most impressive mammals including the Exmoor Pony and Red Deer.

Wilderness locations are good places to spot animals and plants which prefer to live in remote upland habitats with little human interference.
