ALERT: TRAIN HAS BEEN CANCELLED. WE WILL CATCH THE NEXT TRAIN, AT 9:45 FROM PLYMOUTH. DRIVERS MEET AT BEACH CAR PARK AT 11:35.
Catch 9:07 train to Par, or join at intermediate stations. (Leader will join at Devonport.) After walking along the beach, we stop for a break at the coffee van in the main car park. Then it's up onto the coast path to the pretty harbour at Polkerris for a lunch break, before tackling the steep zigzag path up through the woods. We join the Saints Way to return on lanes and field tracks to Par beach, where we can amble along the dunes and back to the station. Trains leave at 13:53, 14:17, 14:54, 15:24, so there is time to loiter on the beach or in a pub if you choose.
Paths generally good, with two stone stiles. Toilets available at station, beach car park and Polkerris.
If you are driving you can join us at 11:00 at the main car park (SX086531, flush.diagram.beeline).
