Walking in Devon 

Devon is a county of contrasts: Whether it is the sheltered beaches on the South Coast or the wide, open beaches on the North; the majestic grandeur of Dartmoor and Exmoor or the gentler, quiet lanes and paths in mid-Devon; the bustling cities of Exeter and Plymouth or the variety of smaller towns and villages with their unique delights.  

Whatever type of walk you want, Devon provides it, and we have a variety of groups across the county ready to help you discover what this beautiful area has to offer. 

Devon walking groups 

Join one of our 11 groups to help you navigate one of the largest footpath networks in the country and discover hidden treasures, whilst enjoying good company with maybe one (or more) refreshment stops on the way.  

Please click below for an example of the many activities run by the groups. This was the 10th Anniversary of the Sidmouth and East Devon walking festival and despite the less than perfect weather the more than 20 walks were well attended by people from within East Devon and outside. Look out for news of the 2024 festival.
