This stunning walk will take you along the coastal path around St Agnes Head. En-route you will pass Wheal Coates Engine House and then climb up the Beacon for a panoramic view from St Ives to Newquay.
From here you can pick up the Bissoe Trail and either walk to Perranporth (about seven miles one way) or Bissoe (about three miles one way). Enjoy scenic inland Cornwall at its finest with lush countryside views and heritage sites. The path in either direction is fairly flat but watch out for cyclists as there is cycle hire at Bissoe which is really popular. There is a nice cafe with outdoor seating at Bissoe. Perranporth has a wide sandy beach and small cafe with a sea view.
This 11 mile trail is ideally suited for cyclists and keen walkers and offers the chance to explore Cornwalls industrial history. It can be started from either Portreath on the North Cornish coast or Devoran on the South coast. Please see website link for starting point details if you decide to start from Devoran.
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.
