The Cornish Coastal Footpath goes all the way
around the Cornish Peninsula ... and its magnificent. Narrow and rocky in
places, often steep when going down into (and up out from) a cove,
beach or harbour, the Coastal Footpath walks which we refer to here are as
small as 1.5 miles (2.25kms), through 3 miles (5kms), up to 5 miles
(8kms). Approximately.
We've tried to organise them in connected batches of three.
So, for example, there are three around The Lizard Peninsular ... one from
Cadgewith to Church Cove, one from Church Cove to The Lizard, and one from
The Lizard to Kynance Cove ... so you could walk any ONE of them, or you
could walk just TWO , or you could walk all three in one go. So they are
just as short or as long as you choose... that's the idea, anyway.
And the same with the river and estuary walks. Again, we've tried to
'batch' them in threes ... short (up to 2 miles), medium (up to 3.5
miles), standard (up to around 5 miles). So, again, you can do one, two or
three of them at one go ... your choice.
***
Here's how we organise it ... but we're flexible, so if
you've got different walks or a different ways to do it, we'll be happy to
try them your way ... with the reservation that we have to think it's
'do-able' and makes sense.
***
1. It works out best when you stay as guests at our Bed &
Breakfast Guest House in Truro ... less 'down' time wasted travelling ...
but we're more than happy to provide just the 'tour/s' only if you'd like
to make your own accommodation arrangements. No problem.
2. Truro is at the geographical centre of Cornwall and is a characterful,
prosperous little city with lots of good restaurants, shops (and much
more) ... for our B&B details see elsewhere on this site (top left box ...
scroll down to 'B&B in Truro') or go to
www.fieldingsintruro.com.
3. As previously stated, we divide our walks into 'short', 'medium', and
'standard'. So if you are looking for 20 miles of good hiking, then this
is not the site for you (sorry).
4. We plan on one walk in the morning and another in the afternoon ...
with a stop for an easy, enjoyable lunch between ... please note the
recurring word 'easy'.
5. We plan the walks to be ...
| Walk |
Approximate time |
Approximate Distance |
| Short easy |
45 minutes/60 minutes |
approximately 1.5 miles/2.5 kilometres |
| Medium easy |
75 minutes/90 minutes |
approximately 3 miles/5 kilometres |
| Standard easy |
120 minutes/135 minutes |
approximately 4.5 miles/7.5 kilometres |
... but times can vary.
6. We've divided the walks into five areas. So, if you look at each area,
you can choose a morning and an afternoon walk from that area ... and that
will be our destination that day ... the tours and day of your choice.
Please feel free to email us on
mike@cornwalltour.com if you'd like to discuss requirements or
different possibilities.
7. What does it all cost? Go to our
Walking Tours with Accommodation Prices page.
Please Note: Our walks can be over rough tracks ... so
wearing stout shoes, carrying a waterproof, and bringing a small bag with
a drink and a bar of chocolate (or something) could be a good idea.
