    Tips

    June 17, 2019

    Standing at 735 feet (223 m) tall, High Cliff, as its name suggests, is Cornwall's highest cliff. After a steep push to the summit, you're rewarded with awe-inspiring views over the Cornish coastline and far out to sea. Look out for herds of Soay sheep or goats, which graze the inhabitable cliffs with surprising ease.

      Good footwear as some of coastal path is uneven. Also plenty of fluids on a hot day as not much shelter.
