The river Teign flows at Drewsteignton through a narrow gorge with walls rising above 200m. We start the walk by crossing the river with the Fingle Bridge. Then we climb the north wall and with the Hunter’s Path we walk in the direction of Castle Drogo. We then descend to the River Teign and walk east with the Fisherman’s Path close to the river to finally return to the Fingle Bridge.
