Embark on a challenging coastal hike along the South West Coast Path from Combe Martin to Ilfracombe. This difficult route spans 11.8 miles (19.0 km) and involves a significant elevation gain of 1735 feet (529 metres), typically taking around 5 hours and 34 minutes to complete. You will experience dramatic viewpoints and rugged cliffs, passing charming spots like Watermouth Harbour and the golden sands of Broadsands Beach, with expansive views from Hillsborough.
Planning your visit requires good fitness due to the numerous ascents and descents you will encounter. Be aware that the path can be narrow and slippery in places, and some sections run alongside roads, so always exercise caution. Many hikers complete this as a day trip, with options for bus or taxi services available to help you return to your starting point.
This segment of the South West Coast Path offers epic scenery as it winds through the stunning North Devon Coast Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The trail provides a rewarding experience for those seeking a demanding yet beautiful journey along the coastline, showcasing the region's unique natural features and dramatic ocean vistas.
