Heading out from Tiverton on the
road to Cullomptom the canal is found on the left and it is a case of just following
the towpath alternating between banks as you go past Halberton, through Sampford
Peverell 
(Tiverton
Parkway) , Ayshford, Great Fossend and Whipcott. At Burnhill Farm the canal
dries up but the path continues to follow the course. There is a
off route to the south at Gamlins Farm.
From Burnhill Farm the canal passes
through the small hamlet of Greenham, shirts Wellington, goes between Tone Green
and Bradford on Tone along the River Tone and on to Norton Fitzwarren and Taunton
