We consider a twisted magnetic bilayer subject to the perpendicular electric field. The interplay of induced Dzyaloshinskii - Moriya interaction and spatially varying moiré exchange potential results in complex non-collinear magnetic phases in these structures. We numerically demonstrate the coexistence of intralayer skyrmions and bound interlayer skyrmion pairs and show that they are characterized by distinct dynamics under the action of external in-plane electric field. Specifically we demonstrate the railing behaviour of skyrmions along the domain walls which could find applications in spintronic devices based on van der Waals magnets.
