Another amazing day on the path today!
We start off from Sennen Cove nice and early. The same crew as yesterday but we will lose two of our companions at lunch time.

It’s pretty murky back along Sennen Beach and there’s not much beach with the tide nearly all the way in

Lands End is in the distance where we round the bottom of the English mainland.


Lands End is the last place on the English mainland before the USA and a mile-stone in our journey - from here we go East along the bottom and no longe South-West.

The terrain changes almost immediately. We still have beautiful granit but it is somehow all much greener - like when we’re in Exmoor Park at the beginning.

The cloud makes it seem very moody and beautiful.

If you look closely here you can see a stag and do who we not phased by our appearance at all.

There are lots of little fishing villages here - like this one that has a tea room.

These caves were made by miners for fisherman to access the beach but also to trap water when the tide went out to store their catch.

Know which way I am heading!


It’s horrible here...

Minack Theatre is an amazing theatre built into the rock where we stop for lunch near Porthcorno.

The views over Porthcurno beach here are stunning.

After a quick gratuitous group photo shot.

Azeem and Christy leave us here and we push on.

The path turns much more rugged and so does the terrain.

Boskenna is a micro-climate and feels sub-tropical with lush vegetation and palm trees. We are pushed onto the beach here to walk across huge boulders for 50m.

Top of the world again today

The terrain is quite strenuous, muddy and hard work as we reach the Tater-Du lighthouse.

We round the corner at Lamorna point


In the distance here we can see St Michael’s mount on the opposite side of the bay. And the island off Mousehole.

We arrive in Mousehole, our destination for today.

Time to revive ouselves with some sustenance...
