A walk of just over three and a half miles, brought to you courtesy of iwalkcornwall.co.uk. Park in the village hall car park and head through the Lappa Vally woodland. Check out the website for full directions and other walks in the area.
A dramatic walk along the North Cornwall coast taking in a line of stumpy sea stacks called Bedruthan Steps, the stepping stones of a local giant! The walk is four and a half miles long and follows the coast to Park Head where it loops inland via Pentire Farm to return along the coastal path. The walk can be challenging with some steep, unfenced drops. Treat yourself to tea afterwards at the National Trust tea room at Carnewas car park. **Please note due to a major rockfall in 2020 the cliff steps to Bedruthan beach are closed until further notice**
It is best to park in the area around The Great Western Hotel and pick up the coastal path heading north all the way to Watergate Bay. The views of the Atlantic are terrific, backed up by some dramatic high cliffs and sandy beaches. Dogs are allowed on the paths but do take care as the cliffs are high. Beach access is limited for dogs during summer but some do allow them during the winter months. Further details about dog friendly beaches can be found on the Cornwall-beaches.co.uk website and it is recommended that you check this before you set off. Watergate Bay is a two mile stretch of golden sands and you can stop over at Jamie Olivers Fifteen Restaurant before the return leg. This walk is a 6 mile round trip. Take a look at the i.walk.cornwall website for a detailed route and other great scenic walks in the area.
Courtesy of iwalkcornwall, this walk follows the Cornish coastal path past the blowholes of Shag Rock and the mineral lodes of Cligga Head. Rough in places, this walk graded as moderate and is just over five miles. Dogs are allowed on the beach at Perranporth all year round.
