What to do and see in Cornwall, England: The Best Valleys
Cornwall is the extreme southwestern peninsula of England. It has the longest stretch of continuous coastline in Britain and it is one of the sunniest areas in the UK. With picturesque villages, Celtic ruins, light blue waters, gardens and parks and unique architecture it certainly is among the most scenic areas of England. Home of many events and festivals and the land of Cornish pasty, it is definitely worth visiting.

We parked at the car park opposite the tea room, walked down the hill to just before the lay-by and followed the footpath sign. The walk is a little rocky and steep in places so bear in mind if walking is difficult. But it’s worth the effort. Along the stream, under trees, passed the old ruins of the mill / rock carvings and up/ down to the valley and sea. We came back going up to the top, and along the sea path to the parking. Views are spectacular.

My wife and I completed this walk today, during a break in the autumn high wind and heavy rain. There was plenty of evidence of both these forces of nature all around us L. We were treated to bright sunshine and far reaching views across to Dartmoor. Wellies are a must at the moment as the mud is very deep as you approach Hawk’s Tor on the path from the Kilmar Tor side. Beautiful autumn colours. It’s quite a climb up the Lynher valley onto the moor (we completed it clockwise) Well worth the effort.
