English Riviera Walking Festival

Its sheltered position, mild climate and numerous walking trails through verdant woodlands, along winding coastal paths and hidden tracks, provide the perfect destination for walkers of all abilities. Not only does the stunning South West Coast Path meander along our coastline, The English Riviera also holds the accolade for being a UNESCO Geopark. There are 140 Geoparks in the World and ours is the only seaside resort with this status. With all this beauty and heritage on our doorstep, we are eager to share it with you. Our Walking Festival offers over 20 coastal and woodland walks led by experienced local guides, who will take you on fascinating journeys. The walk themes include yoga, photography, painting, sketching, literature, history, wine and cheese tasting, whilst catering for all levels of fitness. Choose from a short coastal sensory stroll, to a full day tour along the South West Coast Path, with views which will literally take your breath away. Quite simply, these are extraordinary walks, located in an extraordinary landscape.
