Finish: Baggy Point National Trust Car Park EX33 1PA
Length: 2.7 miles (4.3km)
Time: 1 hour
Difficulty: Easy
Dog friendly
Terrain: Gently sloping around Baggy Point Headland
Wildlife and fauna: ruby red cattle, kestrels, seals, hares, gillimotes, cormorants, pink and white sea thrift and thick gorse to name a few.
Park at the National Trust car park and make a right up the tarmac round. Take care as occasionally cars do use the road. At the fork in the road, take a left (the only dog poo bin on the walk on your left) After a couple of houses, you’ll come across a huge whale bone – the whale was beached at Croyde in 1915.
The start of the walk is lovely and flat and it gives you a chance to absorb the rugged coastline and listen to the sea crashing on the rocks. You may see people coasteering in the waters below.
Dotted around the entire walk are benches so weary legs can be recharged.
