トラッシャムでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Beautiful woodland with several granit tors embedded into the hill. There's a footpath that runs the whole way through and it's wicked in every season. Sometimes hard to spot in places in autumn because the leaf litter is so thick. Incredible bluebells in May.

This sheltered viewpoint is on the family friendly, multi-user trail at Haldon Forest. Big views over the flat lands around Exeter and towards the coast at Exmouth.

Haldon Forest Park opened the new start to the red trail in mid December 2023 and it's fantastic. It's packed gravel with berms at the start, then splits in two. Take the right 'short cut' to cut the entire red in two (or take it to ride back to the start and do the new section again) or stay left to carry on along the new bit and then get onto the usual red. This new section is nowhere near as challenging as the main red, but it's super fast and fun. As it spits you out on the fire track after a short distance, it's great for kids too, who can have a great time on this punchy gravel but bail before the red gets hairy. The way it's set up means it's easy to only do this bit, ride back to the start, and do it again and again.

Great little hire shop. £20 for 4 hours and decent bikes for the trials around the forest. Don't forget ID

Nice and very cycle friendly cafe at Haldon Forest. Plenty of outside bike storage, picnic benches etc as well as indoor seating. Good simple menu for food, snacks, and drinks. Perfectly positioned to ride from here on the surfaced trails of Haldon or to include it as a stop in a longer loop. Open every day.

Fantastic cafe set out of a horsebox in a lovely garden with plentiful seating both outside, in a glam shed and under cover, as well as a gift shop. There are bike racks too. There's a huge cakes of homemade cakes, daily soups and buddha bowls as well as great hot drinks.
