STARTwalking Community Event 

February 8th 2013

The community event was held at the Cultural Kitchen on 8th February.

We displayed information including maps and photographs of the three walks already walked, and details of the next walk planned for 28th February.

 

The following photgraphs are from the event:

 

It was informal and enjoyable with lots of talk about the countryside and the weather.

About 45 people looked at the display with many keen to come on walks in the summer...

The next walk:

Walk 3 - Burrator Reservoir

 

For this walk we joined our partner agency 'SW Lakes Trust' 

who took us on a walk around Burrator reservoir.

 

Their volunteers knew a lot of information about the area which added to the walk.

 

 

Unfortunately the weather was not very good and the paths were muddy.  We were, however, able to have lunch at Burrator Lodge so at least we were dry.

Walk 2 - Yelverton to Tavistock

 

This time, our plan was to catch the bus to Yelverton

and walk along the new path to Tavistock. 

 

 

10 of us braved the cold to go on this journey.

The route was very interesting; from moorland, to woods,

over bridges and through an old railway tunnel!

 

 

This could be a good walk to do again in the summer...

Walk 1 - Saltram House

 

 

I met START at the post office

and we all caught the bus out of the city centre.

 

 

 We went to Saltram and walked next to the river.

 

The weather was good...
