A gentle stroll of just over a mile and a half. The reserve offers visitors the chance to explore two Napoleonic war forts and see Britain's highest and smallest lighthouse. Follow the description attached from the South West Coast Path National Trail and enjoy. Care should be taken with dogs and children as there's some high cliffs.
This is the largest freshwater natural lake in South West England. and it's protected from the salt tides of the sea by a long bank of shingle. Teeming with wildlife, this is a great place to bring children and you can choose from three different walks, a family trail, village trail or the valley trail which incorporates the costal path. Or you can just amble down to the beach, lovely!
Blackawton is a quaint village situated in the rolling hills of South Devon. There are lots of options for walks in the area, many with views over Start Bay and surrounding moorland. Take a look at the community website which has a map of footpaths in the area.
Enjoy a two hour circular walk around this historic Naval town taking in local culture on the way. The route is level with a steep climb and there are plenty of restaurants, cafes and pubs en-route should you need a refreshment break.
This three and three quarter mile walk was created to honour the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. The route will take you through rolling countryside, National Trust woodland and has great views of Dartmouth and Kingswear. Don't miss Dartmouth Castle Tea Rooms for well deserved refreshments.
The pretty village of Stoke Gabriel has lots of choice when it comes to walks. At low tide enjoy a leisurely stroll along the shoreline to Duncannon beach or maybe cross over to the woodland towards Dittisham. A Footpath can even take you to the bustling town of Totnes, a great walk for both you and your dog.
