Torcross and Stokenham Walk: Man and the Landscape

A delightful saunter which threads its way along paths and green lanes through perfect patchwork landscape, with the fields and meadows, woods and sea all laid out before you. This is a 6 mile circular walk taking in the coast path over moderate terrain, fairly even underfoot with some slipper muddy patches in wet weather. Along the route you can expect to encounter amazing sea views, landscape history and local wildlife.

The leaflet will provide you with the all the necessary information for your day out, such as the route, map, places of interest, history of the area, plus refreshment and accommodation ideas.

This leaflet is part of a series of themed trails in Devon’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB); helping you get out there, enjoy, and learn more about the landscape around you. Trail themes include:

Coast in Conflict,

Man and the Landscape,

Trade and Settlement and

A Colourful Landscape
