These signs indicate that this route is part of the 12,000-mile National Cycle Network (NCN).
This route forms part of NCN route 27 – the ‘Devon Coast to Coast’ (a map of which is available at reduced rate from Devon County Council, Carrier Direct, T: 0870 6085531).
The ‘Devon Coast to Coast’ is a 102-mile cycle / walkway between Ilfracombe and Plymouth. Much of this is traffic free, such as the Granite Way between Lydford and Okehampton and the Drake’s Trail between Clearbrook and Plymouth (see boxed sections in location map above). There are several traffic-free sections in Tavistock including between Wallabrook Viaduct and Crease Lane (see main map overleaf).
The NCN in Devon is being developed by Devon County Council in partnership with Sustrans, the sustainable transport charity.
