Devon Coast to Coast Cycle Route Guide Book

The Devon Coast to Coast is southern England's best developed cycle route. The total length of the route is 81-117 miles (130-190 km), depending on the route options you choose.

Whether you are young or old, fast or slow, the limited mileage and stunning countryside makes the Devon Coast to Coast an adventure suitable for all!  This guidebook allows you to fully explore the route and its sights.

Special features: All the maps you need, full north-south directions, detailed visitor information, things to see and to do, help for tricky logistics, Plymouth station route, extra routes incl. 99.9% tarmac route for narrow tyres, South West Coast Path and Dartmoor walks, and full facility listings (hotels, B&Bs, hostels, campsites, bike repair shops and bike rentals).
