フェオックの天然記念物・トップ5

From Pennance Point you can look south to Newporth Head. Considering how close to Falmouth you are, it's amazing how far away from anywhere you feel here.

Owned by the National Trust, Carne Beach is easily accessible from the road and footpath (no steps). There are toilets here as well as a coffee shack and a big car park, plus an easy walk up to Nare Head in the east on the coast path.

Stunning panoramic views atop Nare Head. There is a nuclear bunker underground here which is open to visitors a few times a year.

Pendennis point provides beautiful views of the coast and is only a very short distance from busy Falmouth. The name comes the Cornish Pen (Headland) and Dynas (Castle). Dolphins and Basking Sharks have been spotted here along with more frequent visits from seals. Pendennis Castle began life in the 16th Century as a gun fort and has guarded the entrance to Carrick Roads (Falmouth Estuary) since. It is looked after by English Heritage and open to visitors.

Gwennap Pit was used by the renowned cleric John Wesley to give preaches from 1762 until 1789. Its unusual form is thought to be caused to a collapsed abandoned mine dig. After Wesley's death, villagers continued to use the pit for religious gatherings, a tradition which is still on-going. Local miners cut the circular terraces to make seats at the beginning of the 19th century.

Great place to sit a moment before the long climb back up the hill
