Calstock Ferry
The Calstock Ferry is an on-demand service, like a taxi, on the upper navigable reaches of the River Tamar, between the village pontoon at Calstock in Cornwall, and the landing stage at Ferry Farm, on the Devon side of the river.
It links the Tamara Coast to Coast Way walking route where it crosses the river, below the impressive rail viaduct at Calstock.
This avoids a long diversion for trail walkers, up to Bere Alston rail station.

Canoe the Tamar
If you are looking for a truly relaxing way to enjoy the stunning scenery and wildlife that the Tamar Valley has to offer, then there is simply no better way to do it than with a Canoe Tamar safari.
Our daily canoe trips all start and finish from Cotehele Quay and because the river Tamar is the boundary between two counties you will be canoeing in Devon and canoeing in Cornwall!
Availability of the journeys varies according to the daily tide times.
