Golitha Falls
Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve has woodland walking trails taking you through a steep-sided valley gorge. The River Fowey runs through the gorge with a series of spectacular cascades known as Golitha Falls. The reserve is excellent for interesting flora and fauna with diverse plantlife including bluebells, wildflowers, cow-wheat, bilberry and wavy-hair grass. Look out for wildlife including butterflies, bats and birds such as dipper, nuthatch, treecreeper and buzzard. There is a good size car park at Draynes Bridge from which this walk begins. Golitha Falls is located just a few miles north of Liskeard.
If you would like to extend your walking in the area then you could head to the nearby Siblyback Lake where you will find a lovely waterside footpath.

Golitha Falls in Draynes Wood, at the end of the Draynes Valley
There is a lovely walk alongside the River Fowey here. Spring 2006
The Falls are near the edge of the granite of Bodmin Moor, beyond which it falls away to slate country. The River Fowey descends through a wooded granite gorge, most of which is now a National Nature Reserve. Here evening sunlight is reaching the cascade through the surrounding beech trees.
