Teign Riverside Bridleway

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Nice, mostly flat river side path along the Teign. The gravel gets chunky in some areas, but still manageable.

8.57 km

Clifford Bridge

Highlight • River

Clifford Bridge spans the River Teign in, roughly speaking, the middle of Fingle Woods in the north eastern section of Dartmoor National Park.

Tip by

15.4 km

Gorgeous stretch of doubletrack gravel bridleway leading from the River Teign track to the road through the meadows. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife here, we saw a tawny owl in the evening crossing the path.

Sharp Tor (Teign Gorge)

Highlight • Viewpoint

Hike along the banks of the River Teign and you will see impressive crags erupting vertically out of the gorge. Once climbed, these crags boast exceptional views of the Teign Gorge, Castle Drogo, the Chagford area, and Dartmoor's high north plateau around Hangingstone Hill.

Fingle Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Know that this location is very busy in good weather but nice :)

Clifford Bridge to Fingle Bridge — Gravel Track

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Fast gravel doesn't get much better than this! The path between Clifford and Fingle Bridge is wide (suitable for all cycle users), gravel paved in most sections and fast rolling. It skirts next to the River Teign with many spots to sit and chill next to the river. At Fingle bridge you will find a pub (sometimes odd opening hours), which has a good selection of pub grub and beverages.
