A walk guaranteed to blow away the cobwebs. Take in the spectacular scenery of the Roseland Peninsula.
Once in St Mawes, catch the small pedestrian Place ferry across to Place Creek.
From here pick up the South West Coast Path, which will take you past St Anthony Head Lighthouse and some great bathing beaches.
At the southern most tip of the Roseland Peninsular the headland overlook the spectacular entrance to the one of the worlds largest natural harbours – Carrick Roads and the Fal Estuary. The headland also bears newly revealed remains of centuries of defensive fortifications.
After rounding the headland follow the coastal path until you reach Porthbeor Beach, then turn inland across the fields and return to Place Creek via the road. From here return on one of the regular services to St Mawes and on to Falmouth or Truro.
