'The castle grounds are a haven for walkers with the woodlands offering a great opportunity to view the castle from different perspectives. Follow the John Musgrave Trail to enjoy beautiful views up to the castle from the lake ...'

'There is an array of formal and informal leisure opportunities available in and around the town, and, of course, the vast wilderness of Dartmoor National Park and the tranquil South Hams countryside offer both families and the serious walker a plethora of inspiring routes.'

'We walk fortnightly on a Sunday, regardless of weather conditions .. Walks are generally 3-4 hours in length, with the distance travelled dependent on the terrain and conditions ... Some walks may be strenuous with moorland or coastal path stretches ... Please arrive at the start point suitably equipped because the Walk Leader may refuse to take you if you are not, as this can affect the safety and well-being of the whole group. Everyone walking with our Group does so at their own risk.'

'Modbury Parish has 12 footpaths, 2 bridleways and several "green lanes", all within unspoiled countryside in the heart of the South Devon ... A group of 8 circular walks have been created, all of which start and finish at the main Poundwell Car Park in the lower part of Modbury.'

'Covering 337 kilometres - 130 square miles - of coastline, estuaries and countryside, South Devon AONB stretches from Berry Head in Brixham to Jennycliff in Plymouth. As well as being a place of fabulous views and fantastic countryside it is home to 34,000 people.'

'Downstream from Aveton Gifford, the river Avon winds through its beautiful and secluded valley to the sea. This fine walk traces its course, and you are rarely out of sight of the river, or its rich birdlife.'

South Devon AONB

Described in two Parts. The first Part follows the route up the right-hand side of the Dart from Kingswear - across the river from Dartmouth itself - to Greenway. (It is also possible to walk up the left-hand side of the River direct to Dittisham, but this is not so interesting.) The second Part continues from Dittisham up to Totnes.

'Kingston is an unspoilt village lying between Dartmoor and the sea in the South Hams District of Devon County Council ... It is surrounded by working farms and miles of beautiful coastline and estuaries which are havens for birds and wildlife.

'Salcombe is perhaps Devon's best-known yachting centre, but it can also serve as a centre for a variety of attractive walks.  This one explores the mouth of Salcombe's estuary and the area around and inland of Bolt Head, one of South Devon's most prominent headlands.  At its furthest extent the walk reaches the well-named high point of Soar, before descending to the nearby charming inlet of Soar Mill Cove.'

'Long-distance walking route between Ivybridge on the southern edge of Dartmoor and Lynmouth on the North Coast of Exmoor, comprehensively waymarked except on the open moorland sections.'
