IMG_0606copyThere are so many cycle paths in and around Exmouth, either on Woodbury Common for the off-road enthusiast or on the cycle paths to Budleigh Salterton and along the seafront or even to the other side of the river to Dawlish.

The River Exe cycle path and walkway runs around the entire Exe Estuary linking Exmouth, Exeter and Dawlish. The route itself is fairly flat and takes in the most fantastic views along the River Exe with lots to see and do along the way for the whole family.

The pathway around the Exe Estuary has been developed and constructed by Devon County Council as part of the National Cycle Network Route 2. Currently, the route links Exmouth, Lympstone and Exton with further sections linking to Topsham due to be completed in the near future.

The route is also ready to use between Exmouth and Exton and Exeter and the Turf Locks Hotel by completed cycle paths/routes although it is all ridable along the entire route by road. The Exe Estuary Trail is around 26 miles in length with many smaller circuits made possible by using one of the ferry services and trains which operate around the Estuary.
