Shaugh Tunnel

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

An interesting heritage highlight on the Drake’s Trail. It’s wet and dark so don’t forget to bring your bike lights!

Cann Viaduct

Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle trail passes over the River Plym by way of the Cann Viaduct. On the viaduct you will find a Peregrine Falcon viewing platform and its worth stopping here in spring and early summer. Opposite the platform is an old quarry where the Peregrines nest on ledges. There is a telescope mounted here so you can get a really good view of the nesting birds.

Outside of these times, a break in your ride is still recommended to look out for other wildlife that call Plym Woods home, such as woodpeckers and ravens.
