Dart Valley Trail, Dartmouth, South Devon

Long distance walking trail by the River Dart

The Dart Valley Trail is a beautiful long distance trail that runs along the banks of the River Dart and Estuary in South Devon.

The trail connects Totnes to Dartmouth on the South Devon coast.

Running north west to south east, the Dart Valley Trail starts in Totnes and follows the south bank of the River Dart to Ashprington near Sharpham. It continues to Cornworthy and then Dittisham.

At this point, the Dart Valley Trail splits into two routes. You can either walk west of the river to Dartmouth or east to Kingswear.

The west section of the trail skirts Old Mill Creek.

The east section of the trail passes through Greenway (National Trust) to Dartmouth Higher Ferrry and then Kingswear.

Ferries take you across the Dart at Dittisham/Greenway and Kingswear/Dartmouth.
