Walk - Sidmouth - Valley, Ridge and Jurassic Coast
5.5 miles (8.9 km)
Sidmouth - Bedford Hotel, Station Road - EX10 8RR Sidmouth - Bedford Hotel, Station Road
Moderate - No stiles; the route climbs from sea level to 200m/650ft at the ridge top, but this is a long steady climb with no really steep lengths.
Sidmouth is an attractive seaside town on the coast of East Devon. Situated on the floor of the valley of the River Sid where it meets the sea, it is flanked on both sides by high ridges which both contain the town and give it its scenic backdrop.
