OUTDOORS AND ACTIVE

Out and About with Tavistock Ramblers A very varied 3½-mile early summer walk near Peter Tavy with John Noblet of Tavistock Ramblers takes you up Peter Tavy Combe onto the open moor with splendid 360° views. Then return along a quiet lane and through woodland with the eerie remains of 19th century mining remains. Uphill to start but the views are worth it! Park on the roadside near Peter Tavy Church (SX 513777). 1. Walk away from the church down the hill and cross the bridge over the Colly Brook. Turn left at the road junction and immediately left again onto the signed

bridlepath. Pass the village hall on the right and walk up the footpath alongside the stream to a lane. 2. Turn left up the hill. Pass some cottages and beyond them continue on a footpath to a gate. Here the Colly Brook comes tumbling down the steep sided valley over rocks and boulders. Ignore the path to the right at the junction but continue straight on uphill signed to Higher Godsworthy. Climb steadily through boulder strewn woodland to

a gate. Bear left across the field then right alongside a broken down wall to another gate in the top right corner. Continue ahead, cross a lane to a farm, and go uphill (still!) alongside a wall on the right. Pause to admire the views behind, towards Tavistock and the hills of Bodmin Moor. 3. Go right on the stony track. Pass Boulters Tor and bear left on a grassy path towards another wall and a gate in the corner. The views from here are
