In Penzance, you have to be careful to find the bike path. The route isn't well signposted here. Once you find it, it's easy to cycle and offers a beautiful view of St. Michael's Mount and the bay. As a cyclist, you also have to be careful of the many pedestrians here. The path isn't that wide.

A very lovely view can be had from here of St Michael's Mount. Accessible during mid to low tide, it is a beautiful place to visit via its granite causeway. Go and see this iconic rocky island crowned by a medieval church and castle. One of the 43 unbridged islands in the UK that is accessible by foot.

If asked where a famous island was dedicated to St. Michael the Archangel, most people would probably answer the internationally renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site of Mont Saint-Michel in France, located off the coast of the English Channel on the border between Normandy and Brittany. But even here in southwest England – beyond the European mainland, off the British Isles – a "St. Michael's Mount" can be found.

Insane views and flat out XC fun. Some tasty climbs and steep loose descents

Inspiring views and awesome trails. Big gravel or MTB descents and climbs around the coastal path.

Tredrea Lane is a quiet, undulating and beautiful road between St Erth and Gwallon in southern Cornwall. It's a lovely place to ride, and hopefully the caravans will stick to the A30 which runs roughly parallel. This is part of the National Cycle Network long distance route 3 which connects Bristol and Land's End.

Mên-an-Tol is Cornish language and means hole stone. A special megalithic formation about 1 km of hiking trail off the road.

The age of this megalithic formation is estimated to be between 3,000 and 4,000 years. There are several legends surrounding this cultural site. For one thing, women can become pregnant if they crawl through the "Devil's Eye" - the hole stone - seven times during a full moon. On the other hand, children are protected from illnesses when they are passed through the hole. Well, no matter what faith you follow, the site is a fascinating place. This site can be visited at any time of the day or night - but one should not be disappointed by the "size" of the site. Although the megaliths appear huge in photos, in reality they are only between 1 m and 1.5 m high.

A great place to start & finish end to end ride.

Needs very little explanation: the most southwesterly tip of mainland England, Land's End. This is a mecca for endurance challenges such as Land's End to John o'Groats, for both cyclists and hikers, as well as a popular tourist destination. The best way to ride to Land's End is via the Cornish Way cycle route from Sennen, which is a well laid and traffic free gravel track over the clifftops.

The Beam Engine House of Wheal Edwards drove 32 Cornish stamps, a mill that compresses lumps of iron ore into a more sand like material. This allows it to be processed. It was built around 1870 and went into disrepair after Wheal Edwards was closed in 1893 following a disaster at nearby Wheal Owles. 19 men and boys were killed by a flood that engulfed the mine.

Well worth a visit to appreciate the industry of years gone by

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Botallack Mine is the perfect place to visit to learn about Cornwall's mining history and take in the breathtaking scenery of the 'Tin Coast'. The mine extended out beneath the seabed and during its operational life mined iron, copper and arsenic. The mine buildings are in the care of the National Trust, with a cafe, visitors centre and holiday accommodation in the old Counting House.
