Hawthorn Road Track

Highlight • Trail

A decent track linking Hawthorn Road with Spital Wood. Once you get deeper into Spital Wood (to the east) it gets a little more overgrown.

Spital Wood Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Good off-road trail through Spital Wood to avoid the A382. Bear in mind it’s a little overgrown in places, and definitively won’t save you time. But its much more scenic and safer than the main road.

Road of the Dead Trees

Highlight • Natural

Nice road to Charleston with a series of dead (?) trees along the way. Gives a macabre face, especially in gloomy weather
