Just back from a sunny recce of Saturday's coastal walk. Weather looks great for beach visits and tides are right for swims at Sandways or Kingsand. Plenty of shade too along the Mount Edgcumbe coastpath. We'll have longish stops at Sandways and Kingsand to allow time for beach exploring, picnics and pasties, icecream , drinks etc. If anyone is desperate for chips there will be time to take the short walk to Cawsand and back ,but we won't need to walk along otherwise.
Let us know if you want to take the 10.15 ferry and meet us in front of Edgcumbe House otherwise see you in front of Maker Church at 10.30.
Details in previous post.

Our next Family walk will be Saturday June 13th when we'll be taking to the Coastpath for serious beach action at Sandways and Kingsand /Cawsand. Meet at Maker Church @ 10.30 to walk along the coast via two beaches for swims/paddles/icecream /packed lunch or pasties and lots of time to splash and/or explore. Climbing to the higher path after lunch via the redoubt and back through lanes and fields to the church. 5 miles of relatively easy walking apart from the climb out of Cawsand Bay. If you prefer not to drive you can hop on the 10.15 Cremyll Ferry and meet us outside Mount Edgcumbe House around 10.50. Let us know nearer the day if you'll be at the church or Mnt E house. Fingers crossed for sunshine!

A bit of a wet Family Walk yesterday but the weather certainly didn't dampen the spirits of the 16 intrepid adventurers who came along with me to climb Tors, visit a Stone Row, explore caves and ford streams . Thanks to everyone who joined in the fun. Our next outing will be a coastal walk on June 13th. See you there

Just back from a fab recce of next Saturday's walk! Meet at Norsworthy Bridge Car Park @ 10.30 A steady climb up to Down Tor to start but we can take out time . Down to the Stone Row and cairn then across to Cuckoo Rock where I actually heard a Cuckoo today! Found an easy path down to visit our first cave and an easy stream crossing to visit the second but anyone wishing to omit this one can wait for us by the river! Back along Narrator Brook for paddles en route.
Let us know if you're joining us and for more information.

Our next Family Walk on May 16th @10.30 from Norsworthy Bridge Car Park will be a Moor walk to visit two Tors with great views and a chance to climb and explore, Hingston Stone Row, Cuckoo Rock and an adventure to locate the last two caves we missed last year due to wet conditions. Picnic lunch at Combshead Tor or Cuckoo Rock. The last cave involves a small stream crossing, a scramble and a narrow entrance and can be omitted by anyone not keen to try it! Usual rocks and boulders to negotiate on the Moor but well used tracks. Final stretch along paths and bridleways back to the car. Ice cream van at Norsworthy Bridge or a stop off at Burrator Dam( toilets!).
Route will be amended in the event of adverse conditions!
Let us know if you want to join us!

Just realised I forgot to post photos of our glorious Family Walk a week ago! The weather was a bit different to this weekend and the bluebell woods were just stunning! A few regulars had sick or injured children and we missed you but was great to have new faces join us. Pub stop off was very welcome in the hot sun!

The sun is shining, the paths are dry and the bluebells are out in Meavy Woods! Park outside Meavy School for a 10.30 start next Saturday for a glorious 4.5 ramble with picnic lunch and a pub pit stop just before the finish. Bring cash if you want to pick up jam,marmalade eggs or veg.

Saturday April 25th for our next Family Walk in search of bluebells around Burrator! Meet at Meavy School at 10.30 for a walk through woods to Burrator, crossing two Dams before heading to Sheepstor church for picnic lunch. We then descend through Bluebell Woods and fields via Marchants Cross back to Meavy, passing the Royal Oak for drinks etc just before returning to the start point. 4.5 miles with possibility of cutting out 3/4 mile towards the end if needed. Several stiles,2 quite high. As usual, lots of water ,tree trunks ,rocks and possible mud en route!
