This is where the Coastal Trail Series was born – the South Devon stage has become a cult classic. The course is contained within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and is simultaneously picturesque and punishing. With its blend of jagged rocks interspersed with idyllic sandy coves, this coastline is jaw-droppingly beautiful and hugely inspiring. The South Devon 10k, half, full and ultra-marathon events sell out every year, and you’ll soon see why as you weave your way around the technical coastline, before heading inland to tackle a few of the infamous Devon hills!
