Lovely quiet beach with an interesting history of a lost village. Until 1917, this was quite a bustling little fishing village. During an easterly storm in the winter of 1917 and a particularly high tide, the sea wall and most of the village was damaged.

This lighthouse was built in 1836 to help protect ships from this rocky headland. It was automated in 1993. Start Point is a headland on the south-west coast path. The running in both directions is excellent.

This American Sherman Tank was recovered from the sea in 1984. It is a memorial to those who lost their lives during exercise Tiger. Exercise Tiger was ill-fated with instances of friendly fire, miss managed communications and amidst the confusion German fast attack boats slipped in amongst the landing craft and sunk a couple. About 700 allies lost their lives here practising for the D-Day landings.

Slapton Ley is a freshwater lake separated from the sea by a sandbar which now carries the road and a brilliant running trail. The Ley is an important nature reserve with an unusual habitat hosting a range of rare species. The trail is flat, sandy and almost 4km long, perfect for run training and also beautiful for a gentle jog.

A friendly little Devon coastal village with good running access to the coast path. The Devon coast to coast would start or finish here. The Pig's Nose pub and Piglet coffee shop are both good refuel stops.

Prawle Point is the southernmost point of Devon. There is a coastguard lookout point here with an interesting information board. The South West Coast Path passes here and the running is excellent in both directions.

Uneven surface along this stretch. Take care.

Chance of spotting one of the resident seal if you have your eye peeled or a pair of binoculars.

NCI look out have a visitors room open most days.

Visitors‘ center is open at Prawle Point Seawatch Station.

A great pub in an excellent position. The Cricket serves really good food, looks after the beer perfectly and also has a few lovely rooms. It's on the sea front with great walking and the South West Coast path at the front door. They win lots of awards for the food and accommodation, it's well worth a stop. Open every day 11:00 - 23:00. Food served 12:00 - 14:30 & 18:00 - 20:30.

Very steep climb, with drop offs on both sides. Same views from the flat grass area further back.

Slapton Ley is the largest natural freshwater lake in the south west, separated from the sea by a shingle beach. As a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) it was declared a National Nature Reserve (NNR) in 1993. The Nature Reserve is 1.5 miles long and covers over 490 acres of natural woodland, marshes and reedbed habitat, making it a wildlife haven for all types of birds and vegetation.

Easy but fun ridgeline scramble

Actually is looks like Denmark, not Devon.

push or carry your bike to get from the North to the South

Just beautiful. All year round this is worth a visit.

Beautiful coastal area. Can be busy at peak times but always beautiful.

This restored Sherman Tank was recovered from the sea in 1984 and commemorates the tragic loss of life in 1944 on Exercise Tiger. The exercise went badly wrong after the arrival of German U-Boats and was kept quiet for many years. A number of the US servicemen who died are still buried in unmarked graves. Further information can be found here https://www.submerged.co.uk/slapton/ In the build up to the D-Day Landings, Torcross and its beach were used as a training area due to its resemblance to the Normandy beaches. Around 300 residents were evacuated
