The start point is The Coombe Cellars public house on the River Teign estuary between Newton Abbot and Shaldon. The route then follows the river on Templer Way, along which granite was exported from Dartmoor to Teignmouth. Leaving the river, the route goes to Penn Inn on the outskirts of Newton Abbot, climbs through Milber and Ben Stedham's Woods, drops down to the village of Netherton and then back to The Coombe Cellars.
Birdlife on the river includes white egrets, herons, kingfishers, dippers, grey wagtails and mallards. Shelduck appear in large numbers during the winter, along with cormorants and goosanders. Swans nest and breed along the edge of the racecourse at Newton Abbot and appear downstream.
