Overview

Getting us warm with a walk up over Woolacombe Down to Putsborough hoping for reasonable weather & good views, we will continue with a deservedly popular section of the SWCP to Croyde, returning to Putsborough and CP via country footpaths and Marine Drive. Usual precautions need to be taken at this time of year - right clothing and footwear essential. Total ascent 1342ft.
