Active Events in Devon

Come to Devon and join in some of the action. With events happening all the time up and down the county there's plenty to keep you fit, busy and well-entertained!

For walkers and cyclists the North Devon & Exmoor Walking & Cycling Festival is a week to remember, with dozens of guided walks and mountain bike trips led by knowledgeable local enthusiasts. Join in the Ivybridge Walking Festival for many enjoyable strolls, and make a check for other organisations leading walks on coasts and over moors.

Wanting a challenge? Go for the Dartmoor Classic Cyclosportive, 100km of biking over rugged terrain.

Drop in at a regatta and chances are you'll find yourself taking part in some of their fun sailing and crab fishing events. But the Goldcoast Oceanfest is definitely one for the experts - if you're a high flyer in the world of ocean sports, this event is a must.

Great days at folk festivals will see you learning folk dances and joining in the fun. Exeter's Great West Run, however, might take a little more preparation, with a half marathon as well as fun runs.
