Part of a walk from Luxulyan to Bodminsatterthwaite23/12/2023
On access land but to reach the high point from the bridleway still required all four of us to limbo under 4 possibly electric single strand fences that parcelled the summit field up - nobody brave enough to test them. Then back again -all without trying to put a knee down onto the wet grass. On the 12km hike form Lostwithiel to Helman Tor and back with L, John & Becks.Chris Pearson10/04/2023
Parked at Helman Tor Car Park. Climbed Helman Tor then followed Saints Way to Crift Downs. With Lotty.Dave06/09/2021
From Lanlivery Hill. Returned to the cross-roads, then lane NW. Then N on the Saint's Way, and over the gate to the summit field. Onwards to Helman Tor. Solo.Man of Kernow117/04/2019
