The Devon Coast to Coast cycle route combines beaches and estuaries with the wilderness of Dartmoor and the lush green valleys along the popular Tarka Trail. From Plymouth in the south to Ilfracombe on Devon´s north coast, this route offers a wide variety of scenic landscapes from coast to moor. You will experience the wilds of Dartmoor, trace the course of former railway lines through tunnels and across viaducts, and delight in the beautiful estuaries and rugged coasts. A National Cycle Network map for this route is available from the Sustrans Online shop.
