Pretty much off-road with mud/stone trails but worth exploring for the views

This is another adventure from my holiday down Cornwall and the nerdy side of me liked this one a lot. Back in the day I'm told you could have a tour around the Goonhilly Satelite Earth Station but that's not a thing anymore sadly.

You can however potter around the nature reserve that's right beside it! Parking was £1.50 and the main trail was good enough to get round. Eventually I ended up at a gate and couldn't go any further but still it was a nice adventure.
