KEEN walkers are invited to join the Tamar Valley AONB team in July for an opportunity to walk the entire length of the 25-mile Tamar Valley Discovery Trail, from Plymouth to Lifton.

On July 28, walkers can enjoy the challenge of completing the picturesque trail, while raising money for the AONB's chosen charity, the Devon Air Ambulance Trust.

Becki Lumbis from the Tamar Valley AONB team said: 'Many people frequently enjoy walking sections of the Discovery Trail, but we are setting the challenge of completing one of the most varied and rewarding routes in the South West in just one day, safe in the knowledge that regular refreshment points will be available along the way, First Aid on hand if needed, and transport will take weary walkers back to the start at the end of the walk.'

The Discovery Trail, established in July 1998, is the flagship recreational trail in the Tamar Valley and supports the villages of the valley along the way.
