Lansallos and Lantivet Bay Circular Walk

5.6 miles (9 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This circular walk explores the Cornish village of Lansallos and the beautiful Lantivet Bay.
There's some stunning views here with cliff top paths, a wonderful scenic cove and even a photogenic beach waterfall to enjoy. Look out for a wide variety of coastal birds and the ancient parish church which dates back to the 15th century. The walk runs for just under 6 miles with some moderate climbs on the way.
You can start the walk from the car park in Lansallos village. From here follow footpaths east and then south to Lansallos Cliff. Here you can pick up the South West Coast Path and follow it west past Sandheap Point to Pencarrow Head and the eastern edge of Lantic Bay Walk.
Here you leave the coast path and head north to link up with a country lane around Triggbowne. Follow the lane east and it will take you back to Lansallos and the car park.
To continue your walking in the area you could pick up the Polperro to Polruan Walk and visit these two coastal gems.
