Overview

Park at Gunnislake railway station. We will make our way by lanes, tracks and paths down to the Cotehele Estate and along the banks of the Tamar to Calstock for a picnic lunch. Our return journey back to Gunnislake goes via Okeltor and Calstock church. While walking on the banks of the Tamar you will see the recently developed Wetlands areas and viewing platforms.
