Yes just put in upstream at Staverton Bridge river left, amble along about 400yds, miss the 1st right hand turn and take the 2nd about 100yds past, after that there are a few rapids but not a lot of excitement to be honest, it soon peters out to grade 1 for last 2 miles. Best take out is just above Totnes Weir on river right. You can park a vehicle in a road called Swallowfields and walk down to river. Easy section gentle paddling. Hope you enjoy it.
