You will also find
part of The National Cycle Network which will take you from Okehampton to Lydford. This part of the network is known as the Devon Coast to Coast (officially route 27) and travels from
Ilfracombe in North Devon to Plymouth in West Devon. The route is not particularly strenuous and is therefore ideal for families or those looking for a casual ride. Mountain bikers looking
for an adrenaline fix from an off road blast should look elsewhere.
Walkers may also wish to consider
travelling the 36 miles of the West Devon Way which takes you across the edge of Dartmoor between Okehampton to Plymouth. Here you can enjoy some fantastic views of open moorland, rivers and
valleys.
If you wish to experience fishing
in West Devon, Dartmoor offers still lakes and flowing rivers, rich with a variety of different species, for example salmon, brown and sea trout.
Some prefer to take
to the water and situated between Okehampton and Launceston in Cornwall is Roadford Lake, measuring 738 acres in size. It's a truly superb location for windsurfing, sailing and learning
kayaking.
