St. Martin-in-Meneage walks

This pretty walk mainly using a section of the South West Coast path explores Helford Point and Dennis Head but also nice hidden coves along Helford estuary!

A circular walk that follows a stream up through woodlands. From the small village, walking down the lane to the stream, then entering the woodland, discovering some of the mining past, which nature is claiming back.

This circular walk provides a way to discover Flushing and Gillan creek past the first section in farmland (many stiles). Then you will enjoy views from the South West Coast path around Nare Point.

A short but scenic walk in Cornwall that uses a section of the South West Coast Path and also explores the countryside inland. The route uses paths and tracks and is ideal for a leisurely half day walk.

This walk using ways in the countryside inland and along the South West Coast path provides a way to discover beautiful beaches as Maenporth or Nansidwell. You will enjoy as well views from Toll Point and Rosemullion Head.

Walking from the small Cornish village of Mullion to the coast, and following the South West Coast path, along with the coastal views, passing the historic monument and museum of Marconi, where the first trans-Atlantic radio transmission was made from.

From the small village of Mullion on the south Cornish coast, the walk leads down through the valley to Polurrian Cove. As the South West Coast path winds its way back along the coastline to Mullion Cove, before heading back past the Chocolate factory, and back through the old village.

This circular walk with a few ascents and descents explores this coast section out of the South West Coast path and rarely frequented leading to Porthallow.

A circular walk starting and finishing at Maenporth, the car park is now pay and display. The walk will follow designated footpaths, cross some roads, and also along residential pavements. I have suggested this walk to be a 'Moderate' walk as there are some stiles to negotiate, and the time is also dependent on personal pace.

A circular walk that could be started at either Church Cove or perhaps Chyanvounder, where there is a country inn offering good pub grub. As this is a circular, there is the option to start at (2). But would suggest the route as plotted.

This pleasant circular walk explores a beautiful section of the South West Coast path leading to Mullion Cove. You can visit Porth Mellin as well before you go back using paths and tracks inland.

It can sometimes be tricky to complete a circular walk in this region, firstly because there aren’t enough paths or tracks to avoid stretches of tarmac – some longer, some shorter – and traffic on very narrow roads, and secondly because the most attractive scenery is mainly found along the coast rather than inland.So here is a hike that isn’t circular. As is always the case with such routes, you’ll either need to arrange for two cars or return by taxi. There are no buses serving the starting point, so you’ll either have to walk there and back – in which case you’ll need to cover 28.5 km and set aside a whole day for it – or, of course, you could tackle this route as a stage of a multi-day hike.

A coastal path walk to one of the best coves on the south coast of Cornwall, Maenporth. Where the golden sands meet the crystal clear waters. The path passes a memorial dedicated to the local home guard. Although returning the same way, there is an option to take the route across the golf course, offering a different perspective.

Perhaps an out-of-season walk, taking advantage of the winter free parking and fewer visitors to the area. Walking along the seafront towards Pendennis Point, with the opportunity to visit Pendennis Castle, the Gyllyngdune Gardens, a sub-tropical garden with plant species referenced to Charles Darwin's travels, and his association with Falmouth. There are many interesting artifacts, which make this walk all the more interesting. On the return, walking through the Queen Mary Garden.

Walk (dogs on a lead) along the coast between Church Cove and Kynance, passing Lizard Lighthouse (Lizard Point) with access to the beach along the way (dogs not allowed on the beach). From Kynance Campsite, there is a path leading to the car park in the village of Lizard. It is also possible to set off directly from the village car park.

This very short walk is the easiest way to discover Pendennis castle from outside the main ramparts overlooking the stunning Fal estuary and St Anthony Head.
