Wheal Jewell and Wheal Betsy
A four-mile walk to Wheal Jewell Reservoir and Wheal Betsy, including mining history, leats and reservoirs.
Clampitts Walk
This is a particularly favourite walk of mine that includes all types of quiet woodland, a few nice views and some history and is mostly along well defined paths.
Bellever Woods and Cairns
Starting at Postbridge, we first visit the ancient clapper bridge, then walk through Bellever Woods taking in several ancient sites of interest.
