This route is along the highest of the sea cliffs in the Exmoor National Park. Starting at Combe Martin take the coast path around Wild Pear Beach, then a stiff climb to Little Hangman (715 feet high). Climb on - more gradual this time - up to 1046 feet and the summit of Great Hangman to get the best of the panorama across Combe Martin Bay.
There are lovely sea and valley views along a walk from the small coastal village of Lee, west of Ilfracombe to Bull Point. Take a route through Borough Valley and Damage to the Point, returning along the coast by the lighthouse. The Grumpus Inn at Lee is good for lunch.
Thanks to the National Trust we can bring you this scenic six mile trail along the coast line of rocky headlands and secluded coves. A nature lovers paradise, look out for seals, birds and other wildlife along the way. The walk is steep and rocky in places. Starting point is Mortehoe car park.
Climb Potter's Hill and enjoy fabulous views across North Devon from the summit. This lovely walk will take about 30 minutes, is dog friendly and definitely worth the effort. Take a look at the link to our friends at the National Trust for full details of the walk.
