Steep in a couple of places but some nice false flats to recover. Great road surface, but there can be a lot of traffic.... read more

Can get steep in places but keep grinding and you'll soon be at the top. Great to decend from too although decent brakes needed & pick your line on the road! Awesome views which on a clear day can see for miles.

super beautiful climb and to see the horses in freedom close to Hayton rock is a beautiful reward, I highly recommend it. I left from Dawlish, be careful the roads are very steep and sometimes very narrow, you have to park on the side of the road to let the cars pass.

super belle montée et voir les chevaux en liberté près de Hayton rock est une belle récompense , je recommande vivement. Je suis parti de Dawlish, attention les routes sont très pentues et parfois très étroites, il faut se garer sur le bas coté pour laisser passer les voitures .
