Road cycling

The tarmac option following Exeter Ship Canal from the Swing Bridge near Countess Wear, there's also a parallel gravel road through Riverside Valley Park that's accessible by bike if you fancy. A smooth and flat run into town or out, but take care as pedestrians and cyclists share the path here and it can become busy at peak times.

Road cycling

Brilliant stretch of canal path that leads out to Dawlish, the surface is great in most areas and any bike should be able to get around this path. However if you have a accessibility trike there are some narrow sections and bridge that might make this path very difficult to use.
