3 14 new circular walks on The East Devon Way In collaboration with the AONB, experienced members of the East Devon Ramblers James Baldwin and Ted Swan have devised a number of new circular walks, each using part of the East Devon Way. These range in length from 3 to 8 miles and are in response to feedback from EDW users wanting a range of shorter walks that start and finish in the same place. Some can only be accessed by car but as many as possible can be reached by public transport. The walks pick out many of the best features of the AONB the Pebblebed Heathlands and Commons, the Otter, Sid, Coly and Axe river valleys, the hilltops and woodlands, the unspoilt countryside and the fabulous views. Details of these new walks can be found on our website, or via Ramblers The East Devon Way was created over 20 years ago. It is a 38-mile waymarked route passing through the heart of the East Devon AONB between Exmouth and Lyme Regis and provides an inland alternative to the South West Coast Path. It shows the very best features of this special landscape. These include the Pebblebed Heathlands and Commons, the Otter, Sid, Coly and Axe river valleys, the hilltops and woodlands, the unspoilt countryside and the fabulous views. However, many users of the path do not have time to walk the whole route and have requested some shorter circular walks that can be completed in half a day, but which give a flavour of the varied landscapes. The original route was surveyed in the early 1990s by Eric Mawer of Ramblers East Devon Group. Once again, the AONB has enlisted the support of this Group. Experienced East Devon Ramblers members James Baldwin and Ted Swan have devised 14 new circular walks, each using part of the East Devon Way, picking out various features of the landscape. These range in length from 3 to 8 miles. Most can be reached by public transport, but a few in the more remote spots will need a car for access. Details of each of these walks, including maps, can be found elsewhere on our website, or via Ramblers Just enter the nearest location to your intended walk - Sidbury is a good central point in the AONB - then click on Search and then click on the orange-brown circles on the map. If you are not a member of Ramblers, you will need to register to get the full details for each walk, but there is no charge for this. The 14 circular walks are as follows (from west to east along the East Devon Way): 1. Woodbury Common difficulty: leisurely 4.5 miles / 7.2 km

4 Start and finish at Woodbury Castle hill fort. This walk follows tracks and footpaths to Woodbury village with good views of the Exe Estuary. 2. Colaton Raleigh Common difficulty: leisurely 5 miles / 8 km Start and finish at Woodbury Castle hill fort. Around 4000 BC Neolithic farmers started clearing deciduous woodland to create pasture for their animals. Further clearance, grazing and burning over the centuries created the heathland, featuring the Pebble Beds. 3. Newton Poppleford to Aylesbeare and Harpford Commons difficulty: leisurely 4.6 miles / 7.5 km Start and finish at Newton Poppleford Church. Walk from Newton Poppleford to Aylesbeare and Harpford Commons. 4. Newton Poppleford and the Otter Valley difficulty: moderate 5.5 miles / 8.8 km Start and finish at Newton Poppleford Church.

Sidbury, Harcombe and Sweetcombe difficulty: moderate 6.3 miles / 10.2 km Start and finish at Sidbury. This walk takes in the hills and valleys around Sidbury, Harcombe and Sweetcombe.
