Part of Sustrans National Cycle Network route 2, this mainly traffic-free cycling route follows the two banks of the Exe estuary, linking Exmouth to Countess Wear (south of Exeter) and Dawlish. On the east side of the estuary, the trail runs close to the Avocet Line. It passes through Lympstone, Exton and Dawlish, and housing estates at Countess Wear. On the west side, it is beside Exeter Canal to Turf Hotel, and passes Powderham Park, before passing through Starcross, Cockwood and Dawlish Warren.
