Torquay

This short but hilly route will take you past some of Torquay's well known tourist attractions whilst also taking in the stunning sea views.  Starting out at the Living Coasts centre in Torquay Harbour you will head inland slightly as you climb up towards the Gleneagles hotel.  From here you will head back towards the coast to take in the wonderful views before a brief stop at Meadfoot Beach and then back to the Living Coasts centre.

Although this route is only 5 miles in length please don’t be deceived into thinking that it will not push you. There are 3 climbs on this ride that will test you, but also reward you with some of the best views in the area.  Make sure your gears work and you've packed your climbing legs.
