We are the Cornwall Area Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Members of Cornwall Ramblers are organising a Tamara Trail walk in 2025, see full details here: https://www.ramblers.org.uk/go-walking/events/tamara-way-provisional-details
Established in July 2023 this varied coast to coast path traces the historic boundary between Cornwall and Devon. There is space for a maximum of 25 people to walk the trail in 8 stages from Plymouth to Morwenstow. The trail will be split into 3 sections each run by a different leader. You may reserve one, two or all three sections by emailing Anne Jones at annej.caswwalks@gmail.com .
Anne will respond confirming if a place is available plus an information sheet that includes detail on how to pay. Individual days cannot be reserved, only 2-3 day sections. See information below.
The booking fee(s) to pay for the coaches are: section 1- £50, section 2- £50, Section 3- £30. Your place will be confirmed upon receipt of payment.
Walkers will have the option of staying locally overnight: in Plymouth, Launceston and Bude.
This section is from Gunnislake to Lifton.
During our recce we discovered that this walk is longer than anticipated. It is 15 miles with 2200 ft of ascent. It is roughly split between (70%) woodland trails and (30%) country lanes with lots of open fields and fantastic views. We would like to offer walkers the option to complete the first 10 miles of this walk on June 17th, finishing at Milton Abbot. You would return on a later date to complete the final 5 miles to Lifton as part of a circular walk. Julie Tombs would lead this circular walk at a date that suits participants.
If you prefer to take the 10 mile option do NOT board the coach in Lifton, instead meet the coach at 9.40 am in Milton Abbot. There is parking along the road that circles St. Constantine Church. The Williams coach will stop beside the Edgcumbe arms, PL19 0PB. Please tell Anne Jones at least one week before the walk so we know who to pick up. Both the 15 and 10 + 5 mile paths go through Milton Abbot so there is no change to the route with either option.
This is a strenuous linear walk. Remember to bring lunch, snacks and a drink. No dogs allowed on the coach. Estimated finish time is 3-4pm. Please direct enquires to Rob Norman robertanorman7@gmail.com
Meet in the car park beside the Arundell Arms, Fore St, Lifton
