Starting at the water tank, on Lanner Hill, then walking past Carn Marth open-air theatre, Figgy Dowdy's Well, and up to Carn Marth with the far-reaching views of the North and South Coast of the county. The route then follows designated footpaths down to Carharrack, following a road back to Lanner and then climbing back up the valley to the disused rail track, returning to the start. This walk could be completed in two sections (S) to (4), catch a convenient bus back towards Redruth, and the bus stop at the top of the hill. The second leg (E) on a reverse path to (4), again catching the bus, as above. The time taken will depend on the pace and time spent exploring the area This is a moderate walk due to the climb up from the Lanner valley, so late in the walk.
