Description

Once you've followed Clifford Street south east through Chudleigh you climb Tower Hill out into the countryside and when the road bears left you join the footpath heading directly uphill. Bear left onto the lane (off right is an iron age fort) before bearing right onto another short length of footpath.
Turn right onto the back lane past Ugbrooke House, under the A380 and into Ideford village. The Royal Oak Inn in Ideford is a good place to pause for refreshments before heading on to Luton (a short 300 metre diversion in Luton and there's the Elizabethan Inn, another lovely village pub).
Back on the route you follow a couple of long byways with short stretch of minor road in between, the latter is Tree Tree Lane that leads you to the top of Little Haldon and Teignmouth Golf Course that you cut across on a footpath.
You then follow Shepherds Lane steeply downhill with commanding views of Teignmouth, Shaldon and the Teign Estuary. Eventually you reach the outskirts of Teignmouth and then follow back roads to Teignmouth town centre and Railway Station.
[N.B. This route avoids a rural stretch of the B3192 that ChuTei1 and ChuTei2 take. It is 60mph and busy and very dangerous for both walkers and cyclists]

Surveys

We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.

Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.

This is a nice, quiet walk along minor roads and some byways that are only used by farm vehicles and the occasional hiker! There are some great views across rolling countryside and over towards Dartmoor. It had a few muddy spots, but overall the surfaces were good and I completed the walk in boots, didn't need wellies. The route is not overly hilly in general but there were a couple of steep sections, particularly coming out from Luton village and then going up Three Tree Lane towards Teignmouth golf club. These bits would be hard work on a hot summer's day!
The descent from the golf club towards Teignmouth (via Shepherd's Lane) is also steep and it's the part of the walk where you may need to throw yourself into the hedge to avoid cars ( I met 4 in about 15 minutes).
I like watching wildlife and the most interesting sections for this were near the beginning and the end, around the Ugbrooke estate and up near Little Haldon (by Teignmouth golf club), because there are diverse habitats; the middle section is through intensive farmland.
I have attached a few pictures to give you a flavour.

A very pleasant walk, which I carried out in late January from Teignmouth to Chudleigh. The route shown is not exactly clear close to Teignmouth station. It is straight forward however and I have included a screen-shot of the route taken. The walk along Landscore Road in Teignmouth was quiet enough when I walked it. But it is an urban road with no pavement. The route does include quite a bit of road walking, much with no pavement. But these are quiet roads and I always felt safe and comfortable. Some excellent views and overall a very nice walk. The Royal Oak pub in Ideford would make a great refreshment stop.
