    Road cycling

    Jacob's Ladder is the beach at the western end of Sidmouth and gets its name from the steep wooden staircase that lead down to the sand.

    At the top of the staircase is Connaught Gardens, a public park since 1924.

    Running

    Jacob's Ladder is one of Sidmouth's two large beaches. An expanse of sand and shingle, the beach gets its name from the series of wooden steps that lead down from Connaught Gardens.

    Whilst the beach can be accessed via the steps it is also possible to walk around from the town's main beach via a level path.

    At the top of the step system there is a cafe leading to the gardens, this can be a good place to visit after a coastal run
