De beste sykkelrutene rundt Torpoint

Torpoint Ferry – A Short, Scenic Crossing with Maritime Views The Torpoint Ferry offers a short, chain-driven crossing over the River Tamar between Torpoint (Cornwall) and Devonport (Plymouth). The service runs continuously throughout the day, with minimal wait times even during peak hours. Passengers and cyclists travel free, and bikes are welcome on board — just dismount and place your bike in the designated area away from the car deck. Head up to the top deck for a better view and a breath of fresh sea air. From the ferry, you’ll get a great vantage point over the naval heart of Plymouth. On the Devon side, you’re directly adjacent to HMNB Devonport, the largest naval base in Western Europe. Depending on activity, you might spot Royal Navy vessels, support ships, and dry docks in action — a fascinating glimpse into the UK’s maritime operations. To the west, the Cornish hills rise gently, and on a clear day, you can trace the path of the river inland or out toward Plymouth Sound. It’s a brief but rewarding crossing — especially picturesque during early morning or golden hour. Tip: The ferry operates 24/7, so it’s a reliable option for early risers, commuters, or late-arriving bikepackers heading into or out of Cornwall.

Grand views, and some great beaches for swimming. There's an ice cream shack amongst the chalets below the road at Freathy, and Sharrow Point is a fantastic beach for a swim when the tide is out. However it's not safe to use when the tide is high, so check the times
