Opis
NOTE. This site shares part of the same location and passes under Drake's Trail Yelverton to Grenofen Tunnel (see separate entry), but has a different starting point.
The River Walkham rises on Dartmoor and passes through Horrabridge, eventually joining the River Tavy further downstream, at Horrabridge it goes through woodland all the way to the River Tamar. Having very similar species as Drake's Trail you can also expect to add pluszcz, nurogęś, kląskawka, sikora uboga, cierniówka and pliszka górska. As well as following the river through woodland the return takes you past more open moorland/grassland with Gorse (Ulex) and woodland edges, the walk passes under both Gem Bridge and Magpie Bridge (press STARS on map).
