A trail running holiday from Brixham to Lyme Regis along the South West Coast Path.
From £320 per person
Start your trail run with an easy leg between the bustling resorts of Brixham, Paignton and Torquay, and depart along coastline steeped in natural beauty as you round the headland of Hope’s Nose, birds chattering on the rocky islands below. The route enjoys fine views of the Ness, a tree-lined cliff of sandstone, before tacking two short ferry journeys to Exmouth. The colourful red sandstone of the Jurassic Coast takes over from here, as the trail winds toward Lyme Regis between thatched cottage villages.

Running along the English Riviera and enjoying the dramatic geology at the English Riviera Geopark.
Visiting the old fishing village of Beer, where colourful inshore trawlers are launched from the pebbly beach.

We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard.
