We are thrilled to be offering a new coastal walking experience true to our ethos and values that compliments and increases the range of experiences available in our existing collection of British walking trips in South West England.

- Boat rides and steam train journeys
- Seascapes and sea views, salty air and the sound of seagulls
- Devon’s rolling green countryside
- Salcombe – seaside town famous for ship building
- Find tales of shipwrecks and lost villages
- Country pub dinners
“When thinking of the coast, many people think instantly of the South West Coast path. But for me it’s challenge is the sheer number of people that walk this particular trail. About 900 000 each year. It’s a lot of people and sections of the trail are very steep which surprises people.” said Foot Trails founder Alison Howell
“We loved South Devon. It’s paths on our trails are much quieter and much more varied than the South West Coast Path. We’ve researched and found some fabulous trails much more off the beaten track, so this is a great alternative for people who prefer more peaceful walking and plenty of variety on their walks.” You can also mix your walking with boat rides and even hop aboard a steam train making it great fun.” She added
Devon, Far Side of Wessex is now open for bookings from 01 April 2015.
