Only 120 miles separate two coastlines in England's far southwestern corner, but the route between them is packed with history and geographical significance. It passes through the last of England's surviving rainforest—a wild corner crisscrossed by trails that are just waiting to be explored. We set off on this route, bikepacking coast to coast, in search of the rainforest.
