Luxulyan Valley: Treffry Viaduct and Par Tramway

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

An absolutely magical stretch of shared cycleway and footpath that follows the River Par on what was once an old tramway. You're surrounded by reminders of the Luxulyan Valley's historic past, with crumbling buildings, chimneys and Teffry's Viaduct which were all used in clay extraction here.

Today, the route is blissfully peaceful, though the river does flow with quite some force alongside the path. Look out for dippers here.
