Embark on the Baggy Point & Croyde loop from Woolacombe, a moderate hike spanning 11.1 miles (17.9 km) with an elevation gain of 793 feet (242 metres), typically taking around 4 hours and 50 minutes to complete. This route offers a diverse landscape, from long stretches of sandy beach and extensive sand dunes to rugged coastal paths and sections through farmland. You will experience breathtaking coastal views, pass by the two Blue Flag beaches of Woolacombe and Croyde Bay, and encounter spectacular rock formations around Baggy Point where climbers are often seen.
While parts of the path, especially around Baggy Point, are fairly gentle, the overall loop requires a good level of fitness due to varied terrain, including potentially wet and muddy sections after rain. The trail incorporates undulating paths with moderate climbs and descents. On clear days, you can see Lundy Island and even Hartland Point in the distance, with cliff slopes adorned by wildflowers, gorse, and heather, particularly vibrant in late spring and summer.
This trail is notable for following sections of the renowned South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail. Baggy Point itself is a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its impressive geological formations, including Devonian sandstone and wave-cut platforms. You can also find historical remnants of World War II training activities by American troops and preserved whale bones from a 1915 stranding. The area is excellent for birdwatching, and you might spot grey seals along the shoreline or North Devon Ruby Red Cattle in the dunes.
