Discover Devon's idyllic playground - switch off from everyday life and get active in Devon's outdoor gym - blow the cobwebs away with a burst of energy and return home refreshed and invigorated.

Devon is ideal for outdoor activities, with a playground that includes two separate and varied coastlines, two National Parks, five Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, England's first natural World Heritage Site and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

On land, there are walking and cycling options for everyone - from short and circular routes for a leisurely day out to challenging long distance trails for the enthusiast. Lovers of horse riding are also catered for with unbeatable options for both novice and experienced riders.

Discover Devon's 'green' side play a round of golf amidst sand dunes, tread the heathery moorland or be side-tracked by stunning seascapes or spectacular countryside.

On water, paddle your own canoe, experience open water diving or ride some world-class waves - Devon offers some of the UK's best year-round watersports opportunities in stunning locations. Or bring your rod, and discover clean rivers, inland fishing lakes, rewarding deep-sea angling trips and organised fishing weekends year-round in Devon.
