Some basic green laning around Dartmoor/East Cornwall

I'm after an area to take the family on some easy green laning in or around Dartmoor or East Cornwall to get them interested.

Any ideas? Thumbs Up

Hi. Did you find anywhere? I live in Plymouth and have wondered about trying laning for a while.

Hi. Not really looked into it that much. Will have to check out maps etc. - must be some around SE Cornwall / Dartmoor etc. - certainly a lot of dodgy roads...!

Sadly? Why, are you on a shipwreck? Laughing

Seriously though, we are going to Falmouth over the new year and wonder if anyone knows of any mild green lanes in that area. There'll be a Freelander 2, a Disco 2 and a Landcruiser.

Brazil eh? that's interesting - what you floating on? I'm on a products tanker at present heading towards sunny Rotterdam...leaving G.O.M. behind and somewhere off the states at present. Don't do the Nav bit - Engineer.

I'm on the "Oceanic Endeavour" which is a seismic vessel. I'm a Coxswain. The weather is rubbish down here at the moment and its work so I would rather be at home.

sailorboi - bet the weathers o.k! what about al them there pirate types? I was around there couple of years back on a VLCC - felt a bit like sitting ducks, we did have fire hoses and some barbed wire though! Did some bunkering off Benin - bunker barge was battened down / portholes welded over etc etc.

29salcombe - I know what you mean about rather being at home... I'm here to New Year just to add to it!

Bit of a thread resurrection, but was searching for any info on some easy green lanes on Dartmoor and this thread popped up - rather than start a new one and all that....

Off to Dartmouth for a week, then doing the East Devon trek day on 18th Sept. So been looking to see if there are any easy green lanes I could go and visit while I am down there... anyone?
