Events calendar

One of the main aims of the Cornwall RIGS Group is to raise people’s awareness of Cornwall's geology. Members of the group provide guided walks and talks throughout the year. These and other geological activities are published in a twice yearly list of events.

These events are open to all and are organised by various bodies. Be more climate friendly and help to reduce congestion in Cornwall by car sharing with friends. Field trips are at your own risk. Appropriate clothing and footwear are essential.
