Route Highlights

1. Chapel Porth → Wheal Coates
Almost immediately you'll climb above Chapel Porth and reach the iconic ruins of Wheal Coates, one of Cornwall's most photographed mining sites. The views back over Chapel Porth are stunning. �

2. St Agnes Head
The path follows rugged cliffs around St Agnes Head. On a clear day you can see right up the north coast and often spot seabirds and seals below.

3. Porthtowan
A good place for a rest, coffee, or lunch if you're breaking the walk into sections. From here the path continues north along high cliffs. �

4. Portreath
Another useful stopping point with toilets, cafés and beach access. Beyond Portreath the coastline becomes wilder and less developed.

5. Hell's Mouth
One of the most dramatic viewpoints on the route, with sheer cliffs dropping into the Atlantic. Great place for photos.

6. Godrevy
The final stretch opens up spectacular views across St Ives Bay towards Godrevy Lighthouse, said to have inspired Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse
