Lydford Gorge

There are two walking trails at Lydford Gorge. The Waterfall trail takes in Whitelady Waterfall, which cascades down a sheer rock face into the gorge, on a one hour circular walk - steep slopes and uneven ground. The Devil's Cauldron trail takes you into the deepest part of the gorge on a 45 minute circular walk, where the river is forced through narrow gaps in the rock and boils in the Devil's Cauldron pothole - steep steps, uneven surfaces which can be slippery even when dry.
