Quite a number of steps to climb so if you are up for the challenge, the views at the top are worth it. Beautiful at night with the lights, so worth a visit both day and night.

The rock gardens had a major refurbishment a few years ago, including the installation of steps direct from the promenade to the top of the cliff.

The east and west accesses are far less strenuous than the new steps too. Explored the walk for the first time today, the cliffs are just a mass of brambles, no doubt Torbay Council can't afford to maintain it, the Torbay Council that is too small to function economically to function as a unitary, Exeter had a close escape there! There are great views from the top path, which are well worth the visit.…
