South West Coast Path: Exmouth to Sidmouth

Although it only makes up a small portion of the South West Coast Path, the Sidmouth to Exmouth segment is a fantastic point-to-point trail for a wide variety of walkers, as it features some slightly challenging terrain with gorgeous views of the water. As this is a fairly lengthy one-way trail, be sure to arrange a pick up at the end of the route or plan your travel beforehand in order to get back to your vehicle. Setting out from the trailhead in Sidmouth, you will make your way to the southwest, passing by Connaught Gardens on the way to climbing up the cliffside. Here, you will follow along the rugged terrain of the coast as it leads you southwest and provides stunning views across the English Channel. After crossing the River Otter and passing by Budleigh Salterton, you will make the final push along the trail to reach the terminus of the route in Exmouth.
