This historic bridge spans the Little Petherick Creek. It's an old stone structure with a traditional Cornish design, and the views as you cross it toward Padstow and over the water toward Brea Beach and Rock are spectacular.

Stop and enjoy the panoramic view, St. Austell in the distance which is where you are headed.

Worth a look. Have an ice cream if the weather is nice

Bridge over Little Petherick Creek, just before coming into Padstow. This beautiful and iconic structure is a timeless classic, evocative of a different age.

The left climb is number 113 in Simon Warren's Another 100 Greatest Cycling Climbs. Super greasy surface - even in June. Reduced to walking :( Bring wide tyres with low pressures.

Portmellon is a very small village and cove. The road closely hugs the sandy beach, which is completely covered by the sea at high tide. There is a snack shack in the beach carpark and a pub next door if you are in need of sustenance. If you approach Portmellon from the South West you will see the 'Beware Waves' sign on your left. Take heed on stormy days as the waves crash right over the road and can even hit the houses.

An Iron Bridge spans the gap over Little Petherick Creek and gives a glimpse into the Camel Trail's past life as a railway line. The railway opened in 1899 with this bridge being the final piece of the puzzle connecting Wadebridge and Padstow. The trail over the bridge has been updated to accommodate walkers and cyclists from its original narrow wooden path.

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.

The path is still closed in Komoot, but there is a new one on the coast each time.

Par Sands is a wide sandy expanse of beach with a network of sand dunes behind. The beach is flanked by Cornwall's famous exports. Looking towards the beach and east is a rural idyll whereas looking west is a china clayworks, still in use today.

Just behind Par beach is a small wetland. A few chalets from Par Sands Holiday Park look out across the lake which must make for a beautiful view at sunrise & sunset. In years gone past it was a model boating lake but now a tranquil nature reserve.

Roche Rock is a granite outcrop looming 20m high. On top of the rock is the ruin of a chapel built in 1409. There are plenty of legends surrounding the chapel. It is thought to have been lived in by a hermit and his daughter, hence another popular name for it being Roche Rock Hermitage. In medieval times it is said to have been occupied by a landowning family who had leprosy and wanted to protect loved ones from catching it. The demon of Jan Tregeagle, an evil Cornish magistrate who was said to have made a pact with the devil in return for power, fame and success, tried to hide at Roche Rock after being set a series of impossible tasks to keep him out of hell until Judgement Day. When the wind is blowing you might even hear wailing coming from the chapel walls.

Charlestown is an unspoilt Georgian harbour used frequently as a filming location as it is so unchanged by time. It features in Poldark, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Eagle has Landed, Alice in Wonderland and the Three Musketeers to name a few. The harbour was built between 1791 and 1801 to export copper and import coal but also ended up exporting china clay. Charlestown was named after Charles Rashleigh, a local entrepreneur who invested greatly in the area. It was previously known as West Polmear. There is a cafe and two pubs in Charlestown plus a Shipwreck Treasure Museum.

Padstow Harbour is a picturesque port and the perfect place to enjoy fish and chips. It was made famous by the celebrity chef Rick Stein who still has a restaurant, bistro, cafe and chippy here. The harbour is busy with fishing boats and visitors alike in the summer with quick access across to Rock possible via the ferry.

The coastal path from here has very nice views but requires some fitness level.

Some lovely restaurants, and a great place to stop for a fish and chips or a pasty before continuing on the coastal road
