Toegang
The Torpoint Ferry (technically a floating bridge) crosses the River from the City of Plymouth, on leaving the ferry there is a one way system towards the left, there is ample on street parking available. On site the start of the walk is on a raised walkway, that eventually turns to sandy and then seaweed covered rocks along Gravesend Lake/Gravesend Hard (point) and Thankes Lake, eventually you get to Thankes Park that has open grassland and woodland walks.
