エグロシャイルの湖・トップ5

Nice run, sometimes narrow paths for a trail run but beautiful route!

You'll need to park the bike up, just off the road, adjacent to a gate (hidden behind a tree!) Then walk up the track to the Tor and the old quarry. Lovely to explore the remains and also the small lakes up there.

Beautiful hike well worth the effort and experience. It’s called the roller coaster for a reason 😁

A certain sadness surrounds Port Quin. In the 19th century all the men from the small fishing port were lost at sea. The women and children who lived in the village abandoned their homes presumably due to having the the culture of the time meaning they were relient on the men's incomes. Port Quin is sometimes known as 'the village that died'.

Padstow is famous for it's beautiful harbour, sandy beaches and amazing fish restaurants. Whether you grab fish and chips and sit on the harbour wall, or sample TV chef Rick Stein's first restaurant, the beaches and the food are not to be missed whilst you're here!

It is a nightmare to cycle through once the visitors are there I.e. most of the year. Cyclists don't stand a chance, I cycle to Rock and catch the ferry over to P if I need to go there.

Breney Common is an important wetland, open water and dry heathland site designated as a SSSI and nature reserve. Historically it was a tin mining area which left the depressions and landforms which then became ponds and ditches. There are a wide variety of plants and animals here, the area supports several dragonfly and damselfly species.

Car park available, and a good point to start a tour to Port Isaac
