Tarka can now boast it has the most modern, integrated and attractive pedal-assist electric bike on the market. For modern aesthetes, aspiring eco-enthusiastic commuters and folks who crave the fun of bike riding without doing much of the work, The Giant's Twist Freedom DX hits the mark. A true hybrid, the Twist has no throttle. It relies on both pedal power and an unobtrusive yet sturdy 300-watt motor to set you on your way.

Giant's designers parlayed the bike's modern commuter vibe into two saddlebag-borne removable Li-ion batteries. These power sources fit vertically inside the bags and will provide a whopping 70-mile range over flat and somewhat rolling terrain while in Economy mode. So you can enjoy the scenery on the Tarka Trail all long without the strain.

No petrol, No parking problems, No traffic queues.

For just £40 (booked in advance) or £25 each bike hired on the day will give you a holiday experience to be remembered. As access to the Williamson inspired Tarka Trail is only across the road from the park. This unique 180 mile figure of eight walkway and cycle path offers our visitors the opportunity to explore and discover the meandering river ways of the Taw and the Torridge. To travel will ease through rolling farmland and wild moor land, or just picnic on the rugged coastline and sandy bays.
