Croyde to SauntonThe 3 mile walk from Croyde to Saunton is a lovely way to discover the nearby town and its famous golden sands. This country walk is well sign- posted and crosses open pastures and sloping fields from the centre of Croyde village to Saunton. Although there are one or two fairly steep climbs in this Croyde walk it offers some fantastic views over Croyde Bay, perfect for getting that unforgettable holiday photograph. One of the best advantages of tackling this walk is that it passes some of the area’s most popular inns on the way – look out for The Manor and The Thatch. |
Woolacombe to CroydeFor a Croyde walk that includes two of the region’s finest Blue Flag beaches, the route between Croyde and Woolacombe is a 5 mile walk in fresh sea air guaranteed to blow the cobwebs out! The walk starts in Woolacombe and can either be followed along the sandy coastline or along the cliffs until reaching Putsborough Sands. From here, walkers make their way to Baggy Point, which bustles with visitors taking in the spectacular views. Croyde Bay is just a short walk from Baggy Point, and its timeless beauty will appear in the distance for the last stretch.

Croyde to Baggy PointThe walk between Croyde and Baggy Point is a circular one with some slopes and is 5.5 miles long. The sea views are the highlight of this walk - so don’t forget your camera! Following the South West Coast Path, the walk starts in the village of Croyde and most of the trail offers delightful sea views of Putsborough, Woolacombe and even Lundy Island. Baggy Point itself is a dramatic section of headland that has long attracted walkers, climbers and the curious, and it’s a great spot for a picnic while you absorb the views and prepare for the journey back to Croyde. |

Croyde via Saunton and Baggy PointA slightly longer walk in Croyde, the circuit of the route to Croyde passing the famous Baggy Point and scenic town of Saunton is 7.5 miles long. There are a couple of steep spots during this walk, but a shorter version can be completed by heading back to Croyde from Saunton Sands instead of continuing. The highlight of this walk, as with so many of the Croyde walks, is its views, and they include Baggy Point, Saunton Sands and Braunton Burrows. Most of the walk is coastal, although it does veer inland at times for some variation. There are toilets at the start of the walk in Croyde but they are not frequent throughout the remainder.
