South West Coast Path (Section 5: Woolacombe to Braunton)

Follows dramatic Devon coastline with **moderate to steep climbs** over headlands and dunes before dropping into Braunton. The route tackles Baggy Point's exposed clifftops (challenging for buggies and very young children) then eases through Croyde and Saunton Sands – flatter, family-friendly stretches perfect for beach breaks. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock and during bird nesting season. Worth it for sweeping Atlantic views, sandy coves, and the contrast between rugged cliffs and vast go

Tarka Trail - Croyde to Saunton Circular Route

Loops through dramatic North Devon coastal scenery with a mix of sandy beach walking and grassy cliff-top paths. Moderate terrain with some steep sections climbing out of Croyde Bay, but manageable for older children who are confident walkers—not suitable for buggies due to soft sand and uneven coastal paths. Dogs welcome and will love the beach stretches. Outstanding views across Saunton Sands and Braunton Burrows make this a rewarding short coastal walk.

Woolacombe Community Trail

Loops through Woolacombe village and surrounding coastal grasslands with gentle gradients, mostly on paved paths and well-maintained tracks. Perfect for families with buggies on the surfaced sections, though some grassy stretches may be bumpy. Dogs welcome throughout. Offers lovely views over the beach and bay without the leg-burning climbs of the main coastal path, making it ideal for a post-beach stroll or orientation walk when you first arrive.
