Walking
One of the most popular activities for visitors to Mid Devon is walking, the area has everything from quiet strolls to serious rambling following a well-sign posted network of footpaths and country lanes. The added assets of nearby Exmoor and Dartmoor are a bonus, and the Mid Devon region is also well situated for more demanding long distance walking.
Quad Bikes
Just south of Cullompton there is a quad bike circuit.
