Sunday 19th October 2025
Exmoor National Park Authority invites you to join in celebrating Exmoor Day on 19th October 2025 – a day dedicated to everything that makes Exmoor special.
Exmoor National Park, designated on 19th October 1954, is renowned for its inspiring landscapes, thriving communities, wonderful wildlife, enterprising businesses, and rich cultural heritage. Exmoor’s ancient moorland and coastal woodlands provide vital habitats for iconic wildlife, including free-living Exmoor ponies and the UK’s largest herds of red deer. As night falls, Exmoor’s internationally recognised dark sky reserve offers amazing stargazing opportunities.
What’s Happening to mark Exmoor Day 2025?
Leading up to Exmoor Day, on Thursday 16th October we’ll be launching the new National Park Management Plan for Exmoor, highlighting how partners are working together to make Exmoor greener, wilder, more accessible and a home to thriving communities.
