[1] Walkers have the option of continuing along the South West Coast Path into the Valley of the Rocks and Poets Shelter.

The route then crosses an area of moorland at Dunkery Hill to the woodland village of Horner and moves towards the coast at Porlock on the Bristol Channel.

From here the route climbs through Worthy Woods before descending into the Doone Valley passing Oare, Malmsmead, Brendon and Watersmeet before finishing by the Pavilion National Park Centre in Lynmouth where it intersects with the South West Coast Path.

The landscapes include heathland, moorland, deciduous and coniferous woodland, farmland, deeply wooded valleys.

In May 2007 The Coleridge Bridle Way was launched providing a horse riding route between Nether Stowey and Exford and includes over 4 miles (6.4 km) of bridleways.
