Route Description for River Walkham Circular Walk
Walking the River Walkham Circular Route is a popular trail in the Tavistock area, as it features easy to traverse terrain and beautifully scenic views along the river. There are a number of intersecting trails along the route, so be sure to pay attention or bring a GPS in order to stay on the correct course. Setting out from the car park, you will head to the northwest and follow along the winding banks of the river as it cuts through the peaceful woodland landscape. After crossing a bridge to the opposite side of the river, you will turn left to continue along the water’s edge as it turns to the southwest, eventually reaching a scenic viewpoint where the waters of the River Tavy and River Walkham meet. From here, you will head to the east and climb uphill across the open countryside on the return leg of the walk back to the car park.
