맘헤드 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

Look out for an entrance onto a footpath on your right, which follows beside the railway tracks on your left, and the exe estuary on your right. The path is too narrow for cycling but great for walking and running.

Fast and boggy marshland suitable for gravel gravad MTB. This section is also part of the East Devon Trail

Nice flat cycle path. But gets VERY busy with 2 wheeled, 2 legged and 4 legged visitors in the summer months. Watch how you go.

Very muddy and slippy at the moment, as to be expected with all the rain we've had. Had to carry bike across stream for a few feet as too big a gap to jump.

The bridleway has now been resurfaced with tarmac, so can be ridden on any type of bike. A really good and quiet link from the Exe Estuary trail up towards Woodbury village and the common beyond.

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 trail for the whole family. Can relax and cruise or head down and pick up some speed. The full trail is about 7 miles so tough for little ones

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

What a great trail it's got it all from seaside views and beaches to open commons and ancient woodland. Plenty of food stops to be had too.

Flat out gravel fun and we'll drained mostly

I'm sure it's a great bridge but I just went through the ford

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.

Great breakfasts, including pancakes with bacon and maple syrup 😋

It is a wetland habitat that attracts thousands of birds, especially waders and wildfowl, and offers stunning views of the Exe Estuary. Exe Estuary Trail passes by the reserve and offers scenic views of the river and the surrounding countryside.

The Exe Estuary Trail is a 22.5-mile (36-km), mainly flat cycle route and walkway that runs around the entire Exe Estuary linking Exmouth, Exeter and Dawlish, with fantastic views along the River Exe. The trail is part of the National Cycle Network Route 2 and is predominantly off-road. It passes through some beautiful riverside towns and villages steeped in maritime history, such as Topsham and Lympstone. The trail also offers a great opportunity to see the diverse and plentiful wildlife that inhabits the estuary, such as birds, fish and seals.

Official viewpoint over the Exe estuary

The Exe Estuary Trail is a splendid traffic free path that stretches from Dawlish Warren to Exmouth. As it is flat and well-surfaced, it is ideal for a family MTB ride, for beginners or for an nice warm up or cool down on a longer route. The trail passes along the estuary so expect wide riverside views and keep an eye out for wildlife as the trail passes alongside RSPB marshes and the Goosemoor Nature Reserve.

A lovely place for a family cycle, challenging in some parts for small children and the uphill is in places brutal, but you can push.
