A scenic route, taking in the views over the River Tamar. An easy, mostly flat suburban walk crossing the Tamar Bridge, with a fairly steep hill around Fletemoor Road and then a peaceful stretch through Ham Woods and good use of Central Park. Traffic can be problematic at St Budeaux Square and nearer the city centre; the Ham Woods to Central Park section can be confusing to navigate. Public toilets are just past the Tamar Bridge near the toll booths and in Central Park near the Life Centre. The route passes Home Park's Devonport End.

Warnings: Traffic can be heavy at St Budeaux Square and near the city centre, and on the Tamar Bridge at certain times (cycle routes run alongside the footpath). The route between Ham Woods and Central Park is confusing through a residential area and easy to get lost in; a navigation app may help.
